6. In addition to the Dependent Territories there will be, as from
November 1979, two Associated States in the West Indies having full internal
self-government with the British Government retaining responsibility for
external affairs and defence, although certain responsibilities, eg regional
affairs and trade, have been delegated to the State governments. The
association of these states with the United Kingdom is free and voluntary
and may be terminated unilaterally. Information on the Associated States
is at Annex B.
