The Extradition (Hijacking) Order 1992

Made
Laid before Parliament
Coming into force

At the Court at Buckingham Palace, the 17th day of December 1992

Present,

The Queen’s Most Excellent Majesty in Council

Whereas the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft (“the Convention”)1 signed at The Hague on 16th December 1970, the terms of which are set out in Part I of Schedule I to this Order, entered into force for the United Kingdom on 21st January 1972:
And whereas the States mentioned in Schedule 2 to this Order are foreign States in respect of which the Convention is for the time being in force and in relation to which Orders in Council under section 2 of the Extradition Act 18702 are in force:

And whereas the States mentioned in Schedule 3 to this Order are foreign States in respect of which the Convention is for the time being in force and with which extradition arrangements are in force in relation to extradition between those States and one or more of the Territories specified in Schedule 5 to this Order.

And whereas the States mentioned in Part I of Schedule 4 to this Order are foreign States in respect of which the Convention is for the time being in force but with which no general extradition arrangements have been made:

And whereas Section 22(3) of the Extradition Act 19893 provides that where general extradition arrangements have not been made with a State which is a party to the Convention, and no Order in Council under Section 2 of the Extradition Act 1870 is in force in relation to that State, an Order in Council applying the 1989 Act may be made under Section 4 of that Act as if the Convention constituted general extradition arrangements between the United Kingdom and the foreign State, or any foreign State, party to the Convention:

Now, therefore Her Majesty in exercise of the powers conferred upon Her by Sections 2, 17 and 21 of the Extradition Act 1870, and Sections 4(1), 22(3), 30(1) and 37(3) of the Extradition Act 1989, or otherwise in Her Majesty vested, is pleased, by and with the advice of Her Privy Council, to order, and it is hereby ordered, as follows:—
