MINUTE PAPER.

Mr Holland. WQ 14/5

Sir J. Rogen

I have the honour to transmit herewith the draft Convention which has been prepared with great care in anticipation of an early settlement of it in communication with the Portuguese Government.

To 70.-

Refer them to their letter of the 1st July 1865 stating that this draft which has been prepared in accordance with most nations from home is submitted for Law (Council's) consideration -

And that the draft Convention appears to have been generally approved & that it will be unnecessary for me to offer any lengthened comment upon it. But that I touch upon the matters which appear to deserve special consideration, namely whether subjects, & military deserters, or persons accused of the crime of Piracy. Whether their respective Governments should be called upon.

And with reference to Article 10 whether it should not attempt to make it clear that the fugitive criminal may not be surrendered without the sanction of the Consular Authorities of the nation to which the fugitive may belong.
