Zakon o ratifikaciji Sporazuma o dolgu med Slovenijo in Združenim kraljestvom št. 1 (1999) (BGBSD1)

Dear Minister,
    I have the honour to refer to the debt (“the Debt”) which is owed under the loan agreement set out in the Annex hereto deriving from bilateral agreements on certain commercial debts that were signed in London on 6 December 1984, and in Belgrade on 7 February 1986, 29 July 1987, 8 March 1988 and 11 January 1989 between the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Federal Executive Council of the Assembly of the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (“SFRY”).
    I have the honour to propose that the Government of the Republic of Slovenia discharge the Debt on the thirtieth day after entry into force of this Agreement by making a payment in respect of the same into ECGD‘s account at the Bank of England: Account No. 22950001; Sort 10.00.00T; Ref: IDD Slovenia. The sum payable will be calculated by reference to the amounts of principal outstanding and interest accrued to the date of payment as set down in the Annex.
    Save for the Debt it is agreed that there are no debts owing between the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and the Northern Ireland and the Government of the Republic of Slovenia under the bilateral consolidation agreements signed as aforesaid by the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the SFRY.
    The Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Government of the Republic of Slovenia recognise that the SFRY has been dissolved and no longer exists, and that the Republic of Slovenia is one of the successor states to the SFRY.
    If the foregoing proposals are acceptable to the Government of the Republic of Slovenia, I have the honour to propose that this Note and Your Reply shall constitute an Agreement between our two Governments in this matter which shall be known as “The United Kingdom/Slovenia Debt Agreement No.1 (1999)”. This Agreement shall enter into force when the Government of the Republic of Slovenia notify, through the diplomatic channel, the completion of their constitutional internal procedures necessary to give effect to it in Slovenia.
    I have the honour to convey to Your Excellency the assurance of my highest consideration.
