Considering the possibility that Protocol No. 16 to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms may be ratified by the United Kingdom and its application extended to the territory of Gibraltar, the Kingdom of Spain wishes to make the following declaration relating to the authorities of Gibraltar: 1. Gibraltar is a Non-Self-Governing Territory whose international relations the United Kingdom is responsible for and which is subject to a process of decolonization in accordance with the relevant decisions and resolutions of the United Nations General Assembly. 2. The authorities of Gibraltar are local in character and exercise competences exclusively over internal affairs that originate in and are based on the powers allocated to and conferred on them by the United Kingdom, in accordance with its domestic legislation, in its capacity as the sovereign State upon which the Non-Self-Governing Territory depends. 3. Consequently, any involvement by the authorities of Gibraltar in the implementation of the Protocol shall be understood to take place exclusively within the framework of the internal affairs of Gibraltar and shall not be considered to affect in any way the provisions of the two preceding paragraphs. 4. The process provided for by the Arrangements relating to Gibraltar authorities in the context of certain international treaties, adopted by Spain and the United Kingdom on 19 December 2007, applies to Protocol No 16 to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. 5. The application to Gibraltar of the present Protocol cannot be interpreted as recognition of any rights or situations involving spaces not included in Article 10 of the Treaty of Utrecht of 13 July 1713, concluded between the Crowns of Spain and Great Britain.
