ARTICLE 5

Revocation or Suspension of Authorisation

(1) Each Contracting Party shall have the right to

revoke or suspend an authorisation for the exercise of the rights specified in Article 3 (2) of this Agreement by an airline designated by the other Contracting Party, or to impose such conditions as it

may deem necessary on the exercise of those rights:

(a) (i) in the case of the Government of Hong Kong, in any case where it is not satisfied that effective control of that airline is maintained in Norway and that that airline is incorporated and has its prin- cipal place of business in Norway;

(ii) in the case of the Government of the Kingdom of Norway, in any case where it is not satisfied that that airline is incorporated and has its principal place of business in Hong Kong; or

(b) in the case of failure by that airline to comply with the laws or regulations of the Contracting

Party granting those rights; or

(c) if that airline otherwise fails to operate in accordance with the conditions prescribed under

this Agreement.

(2) Unless immediate revocation or suspension of the

operating authorisation mentioned in paragraph (1) of this Article or imposition of the conditions therein is

essential to prevent further infringements of laws or

regulations, such right shall be exercised only after consultation with the other Contracting Party.
