TUVALU — AVIATION
TUVALU
On October 1, 1978, Tuvalu became an independent
state. In a note dated December 19, 1978,
to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, the
Prime Minister of Tuvalu made a statement reading
in part as follows:
2 The Government of Tuvalu, conscious of the
desirability of maintaining existing international legal
relationships, and conscious of its obligations under
international law to honour its treaty commitments,
acknowledges that many treaty rights and obligations
of the Government of the United Kingdom in respect of
the Gilbert and Ellice Islands Protectorate, the Gilbert
and Ellice Islands Colony and Tuvalu were succeeded
to by Tuvalu upon Independence by virtue of customary
international law. Since, however, it is likely that
by virtue of that law certain of such treaties may be
said to have lapsed at the date of Tuvalu’s Independence,
it seems essential that each treaty purporting or
deemed to bind Tuvalu before that date should be subjected
to legal examination. The Government of Tuvalu
proposes after such examination has been completed to
indicate which, if any, of the treaties which may be said
to have lapsed by virtue of customary international law
it proposes to treat as having lapsed.
3 The Government of Tuvalu desires that it should
be presumed that each treaty purporting or deemed to
bind Tuvalu before Independence has been legally
succeeded to by Tuvalu and that action should be based
on such presumption unless and until the Government
of Tuvalu decides that any particular treaty should be
treated as having lapsed. Should the Government of
Tuvalu be of opinion that it has legally succeeded to
any treaty, and wish to terminate the operation of such
treaty, it will in due course give notice of termination in
the terms thereof.
4 For the avoidance of doubt, the Government of
Tuvalu further declares that it does not regard itself as
bound by the terms of any convention creating an international
organisation to the extent that such convention
requires the payment of any sum by any State, by virtue
only of the accession of the Government of the United
Kingdom to such convention.”
