EXCHANGE OF NOTES BETWEEN CANADA AND IRELAND AMENDING THE AGREEMENT FOR AIR SERVICES BETWEEN THE TWO COUNTRIES

I

The Canadian High Commissioner in Ireland to the Minister for External Affairs of Ireland

OFFICE OF THE HIGH COMMISSIONER FOR CANADA

DUBLIN, 19th April 1948

Excellency,

I have the honour to refer to the Agreement between Canada and Ireland for Air Services between the two countries, signed at Dublin August 8th, 1947.

It is specified under Section 4 of the Annex to the above mentioned Agreement that Trans-Canada Airlines (Atlantic) Limited shall for the operation of these services be deemed to be qualified to fulfill the conditions referred to in Article 2, paragraph (b) of that Agreement. Since that Agreement has been signed, it has become evident to Canadian authorities that it would be more desirable that the services covered by this Agreement should be operated by Trans-Canada Airlines instead of Trans-Canada Airlines (Atlantic) Limited.

In view of the fact that Trans-Canada Airlines (Atlantic) Limited has been mentioned in Clause 4 of the aforementioned Annex, I am directed to advise you that the Government of Canada desires to designate Trans-Canada Airlines in place of Trans-Canada Airlines (Atlantic) Limited. If you are agreeable to the designation proposed, it is suggested that this Note and your reply should constitute an Exchange of Notes amending the Annex of the Agreement for air services between our two countries.

Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurance of my highest consideration.

William Ferdinand A. Turgeon

Excellency,

I have the honour to refer to Your Excellency's Note of the 19th April on the subject of the Agreement between Ireland and Canada for Air Services between the two countries, signed at Dublin, August 8th, 1947.

I note that the Canadian authorities now consider it desirable that the services covered by the Agreement should be operated by Trans-Canada Airlines instead of by Trans-Canada Airlines (Atlantic) Limited, the airline specified in paragraph 4 of the Annex to the Agreement as being deemed to be qualified to fulfill the conditions referred to in Article II, paragraph (b) of the Agreement, and that, in consequence, the Government of Canada wishes to designate Trans-Canada Airlines in place of Trans-Canada Airlines (Atlantic) Limited.

I desire to inform Your Excellency that the Government of Ireland concurs in the proposed designation and agrees that Your Excellency's Note and this reply constitute an Exchange of Notes amending the Annex of the Agreement for air services between our two countries.

Accept, Excellency, the renewed assurance of my highest consideration.
