EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order replaces the International Headquarters and Defence Organisations (Designation and Privileges) Order 1965 (“the 1965 Order”) which was amended on four occasions. The 1965 Order listed those headquarters which were designated for the purposes of the International Headquarters and Defence Organisations Act 1964.

To reflect the changes to the NATO command and force structure, two headquarters are renamed from Part II of the Schedule to the 1965 Order, namely:

Maritime Component Command Headquarters Northwood (CC-MAR HQ NORTHWOOD) as Allied Maritime Command (MARCOM).

The Intelligence Fusion Centre (IFC) as The NATO Intelligence Fusion Centre (NIFC)

Seven headquarters remain unchanged:

Commander Submarines Allied Naval Forces North (COMSUBNORTH)

NATO Airborne Early Warning and Control Force (NAEW&CF)

NATO Joint Electronic Warfare Core Staff (NATO JEWCS)

Headquarters United Kingdom – Netherlands Amphibious Force (UKNLAF)

Headquarters United Kingdom – Netherlands Landing Force (UKNLLF)

The European Air Group (EAG)

Headquarters Allied Rapid Reaction Corps (HQ ARRC)

Two headquarters are new, having been set up since the last amendment to the 1965 Order:

NATO Centralised Targeting Capacity (CTC)

1st NATO Signal Battalion, NATO CIS Group (1 NSB, NCISG)
