Your Excellency
I have the honour to refer to the Extradition Treaty between the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Government of the Kingdom of Spain signed at London on 22 July 1985 and to propose that, in accordance with the provisions of Article 21(1)(a)(ii), the Treaty shall extend to the territories listed in the Annex to this Note for the international relations of which the United Kingdom is responsible.
If the foregoing proposal is acceptable to the Government of the Kingdom of Spain, I have the honour to propose that this Note together with Your Excellency's reply in that sense shall constitute an Agreement between our two Governments, which shall enter into force on the date on which each of our two Governments has notified the other of the completion of its internal procedures to give effect to it.
I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to Your Excellency the assurance of my highest consideration.
