2. His Majesty's Government have also received from the Swedish Legation in London an intimation that the Treaties concluded in common by Sweden and Norway will be considered as valid by the Swedish Government until further notice by that Government, but that the Swedish Government cannot accept any further responsibility for any obligations contained in such Treaties so far as the State of Norway is concerned.
3. A similar communication has been received from the Norwegian Repre- sentative in London, intimating that the Government of Norway recognises its obligations under the Treaties concluded in common by the two States but repudiates any obligation as regards such Treaties so far as Sweden is concerned.
4. The replies of His Majesty's Government to these communications, gladly take note of the desire of the Governments of the two States that their respective arrangements should remain in force pending a further study of the subject, but observe that the dissolution of the Union undoubtedly affords His Majesty's Government the right to examine, de novo, the Treaty arrangements by which Great Britain was bound to the Dual Monarchy.
