SCHEDULE 1EXCHANGE OF LETTERS BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND AND THE GOVERNMENT OF CANADA CONCERNING CONSOLIDATED ARRANGEMENTS ON SOCIAL SECURITY

NO. 1The United Kingdom High Commissioner at Ottawa to the Minister of Employment and Immigration of Canada

British High Commission

Ottawa

11 October 1994

Dear Minister:

As you know, our officials have been considering whether the arrangements concerning social security agreed in the letters which passed between the Governments of the United Kingdom and Canada on 8 and 10 December 1959, as amended by the exchanges of letters of 7 and 30 November 1961, 9 March 1973 and 10 November 1977 (henceforth referred to as “the former exchanges of letters”) require to be consolidated into a single document, with modifications where necessary to take account of changes in legislation.

The Government of the United Kingdom now proposes that:

(i)the consolidated arrangements shall be in the form as set out in the Schedule to this letter;

(ii)the consolidated arrangements shall enter into force on a date to be specified in Notes exchanged between our two Governments, through the Diplomatic Channel, notifying each other that all matters as are necessary to give effect to these consolidated arrangements have been finalised, from which date the arrangements set out in the former exchanges of letters shall cease to have effect, except in respect of claims for benefit approved under those arrangements prior to that date;

(iii)the consolidated arrangements shall remain in force until the two Governments agree to terminate them or either Government gives at least six months notice of termination of them to the other.

If these proposals are acceptable to the Government of Canada, I have the honour to suggest that this letter and its Schedule, and your reply to that effect, shall constitute an Agreement between the two Governments on this matter which shall enter into force as in (ii) above.

I avail myself of this opportunity to renew to Your Excellency the assurance of my highest consideration.

Nicholas P Bayne
