In the event of an external threat or attack against a Party acting in accordance with the purposes referred to in paragraph 2 of Article Two, the date and manner of use of the reviews and authorizations referred to in Chapters II and III of this Agreement shall be the subject of urgent consultations between the two Governments and shall be determined by mutual agreement, without prejudice to the inherent right of either Party to direct and immediate self-defence. 2. The Spanish Government and the Government of the United States shall conclude agreements on the use by the United States of Spanish facilities, territories, territorial seas and airspace in times of crisis or war in support of NATO contingency plans. The text of the treaty was published by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) on March 9, 2006. It applies retroactively to 1. January 1998, but does not apply to tax periods that are prescribed by the limitation period.

The above provisions shall be applied for each base by means of a Memorandum of Understanding mutually agreed within the Standing Committee. 3. In accordance with Article Two(2), appropriate agreements on the safety of navigation of hidden vessels shall be concluded by mutual agreement between the respective authorities of the United States Navy and the Spanish Navy. 3.

November, proposing that the defence industry cooperation provisions of the 1982 Friendship, Defence and Cooperation Agreement between the United States and Spain remain in force until a new Defence Industrial Cooperation Agreement can be signed, separate from the new Defence Cooperation Agreement. I have the honour to inform you that my Government accepts the arrangement you have proposed. The general practice for companies is to dismiss the employee so that he is entitled to the statutory severance pay as well as unemployment benefits, which are subject to tax and social security contributions. Although this system is used in a clear majority of cases by employers, consensual dismissal that appears to be dismissed (dismissal letters to the employee to receive severance pay without tax or unemployment benefit) is illegal and is considered fraudulent.
