submitted 54 years ago by Pub. L. 92-499 to r/title-22-FOREIGN-RELATIONS-AND-INTERCOURSE · 156 words · no verdicts yet
The President can give the U.S. mission of the Commission of the European Communities, and its members, the same privileges and immunities as accredited diplomatic missions get. For other Commission offices set up in the United States, the President can instead give either that same full diplomatic-style treatment or a smaller set of privileges similar to what consular offices and officers get, whichever fits the office's job.
Under such terms and conditions as he shall determine and consonant with the purposes of this section, the President is authorized to extend, or to enter into an agreement extending, to the Mission to the United States of America of the Commission of the European Communities, and to members thereof, the same privileges and immunities subject to corresponding conditions and obligations as are enjoyed by diplomatic missions accredited to the United States and by members thereof. Under such terms and conditions as the President may determine, the President is authorized to extend to other offices of the Commission of the European Communities which are established in the United States, and to members thereof—
the privileges and immunities described in the preceding sentence; or
as appropriate for the functioning of a particular office, privileges and immunities, equivalent to those accorded consular premises, consular officers, and consular employees, pursuant to the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations.
