General Role of the Minister

1. The Minister shall be responsible for the conduct of all diplomatic relations that precede or affect the granting of diplomatic recognition to a Foreign State.

2. Upon granting of diplomatic recognition in accordance with these Regulations, the Minister may appoint a designate as the primary representative of the Royal Kingdom responsible for liaising with the Foreign State on matters of mutual interest and formal diplomatic relations.

Diplomatic Recognition

3. The Minister shall have the authority to recognise a Foreign State on behalf of the Crown through an Order provided that the Foreign State meets the requirements outlined below.

4. A Foreign State shall be eligible for diplomatic recognition by the Crown provided that it meets the following conditions:
