Seoul, 1st December, 1982
No. 2219
Excellency,
With reference to Article 6 of the Agreement on Economic and Technological Cooperation
between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Republic of Korea, signed to-day, I
have the honour to inform you as follows:
By virtue of Article IX of the Agreement on encouragement and reciprocal protection
of investments between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the Republic of Korea, concluded
at The Hague on 16 October 1974, a Mixed Commission was established which may be convened
at the request of either Contracting Party to discuss any matter pertaining to the
implementation of the said Agreement. Also the Agreement signed to-day provides for
a mixed commission. As both agreements have as a primary goal the promotion of economic
cooperation, the subjects to be discussed by the two commissions will in general be
closely linked. With a view thereto it would be preferable that the meetings of the
two commissions will in principle be combined. In practice this would imply that one
mixed commission could meet, to discuss matters relating to the implementation of
both agreements.
Your confirmation of the above will be very much appreciated.
I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to Your Excellency the assurances of my
highest consideration.
(sd.) A. B. HOYTINK
