The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands presents its compliments to the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs of the Slovak Republic and has the honour to propose that the application
of the European Convention on Extradition of 13 December 1957, in accordance with
article 27, paragraph 4, be extended to the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba, that the
declarations and reservations that apply in relations between the Kingdom of the Netherlands,
in respect of the Kingdom in Europe, and the Slovak Republic shall also apply in relations
between Slovak Republic and the Kingdom of the Netherlands in respect of the Netherlands
Antilles and Aruba, and that the declaration concerning Articles 6 and 21 as made
by the Kingdom of the Netherlands upon ratification of the Convention on 14 February
1969 and as amended on 14 October 1987 shall apply to the Netherlands Antilles and
Aruba respectively, with regard to the extradition of Netherlands nationals, only
when the European Convention on the transfer of sentenced persons, concluded in Strasbourg
on 21 March 1983, becomes applicable to the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba Respectively.
If the proposal is acceptable to the Government of the Slovak Republic, the Embassy
has the honour further to propose that this note and the Ministry's affirmative reply,
shall constitute an arrangement as provided for in article 27, paragraph 4, of the
convention, which shall enter into force on the first day of the third month following
the date on which the Embassy receives the Ministry's reply.
