trol dangerous plant diseases and insect pests, and the results achieved.
2. To take part as far as possible and by prior agreement in every
campaign designed to prevent the emergence of dangerous diseases and
insect pests in the vicinity of their frontiers up to a distance of thirty kilometres
on either side, when such emergence would constitute a serious threat
to the rural and forest economy of the two Contracting Parties and necessitates
joint action because of its gravity.
Article 8
The two Contracting Parties, recognizing the value of and the need for
specialists in plant pathology and entomology from the two countries to meet
as frequently as possible in order to exchange the scientific and practical
experience gained in plant protection, agree in principle that visits between
these specialists should take place on a reciprocal basis. The details of the
duration and financial conditions of these visits shall be determined in direct
negotiations between the plant health services of the two countries.
If the need arises in the frontier plant health zone, and if a request
has been duly formulated by one of the two Contracting Parties, the other
Contracting Party shall, by common agreement, and as far as prevailing
conditions permit, provide assistance in order to prevent or control dangerous
plant diseases and insect pests, in the form of specialized personnel, equipment
and material. The two Contracting Parties express the hope that permits
to cross the frontier will be issued to plant protection specialists in the service
of the State, under conditions to be determined subsequently by both
States through the diplomatic channel.
Such services and materials shall be paid for at cost price.
Article 9
The two Contracting Parties, likewise recognizing the value of exchanging
literature on plant protection as a means of publicizing the progress
achieved in the science of plant protection in each of the two countries,
undertake to carry out this exchange on the basis of lists, drawn up in their
respective countries, of the publications of each country and the services
or institutions which might benefit from them. Each Contracting Party shall
request the editorial committees of these publications to ensure that a summary
in French or in English is appended at the end of each article and
that the address of the author is given so that any interested readers may
contact him.
