A mere reference to the possibility of parties reaching an agreement contrary to this rule would not have made it possible to reconcile these two concerns: quite apart from the fact that all the guidelines in the Guide to Practice are only indicative and parties remain free to depart from them by (valid) agreement inter se, it is extremely doubtful whether an agreement could be said to have come about merely because the other parties all remain silent.

The Quality Assurance Section, comprising four regular budget posts (2 P-5, 1 P-4 and 1 LL posts), the Corporate Services Section and the Resource Mobilization Section, previously included under executive direction and management, are now included under programme support, to be managed, integrated and coordinated by the Office for Operations.

In developing countries the majority of farmers reuse, exchange or sell informally to neighbours, and annual purchase of new seed is relatively rare in most countries.

It is true that the relativity of legal relations is, to some extent, limited in the case of these treaties, since by definition the reservation produces its effects in the relations between the author and all other parties; however, it has no effect with regard to the other States parties’ relations inter se, which remain unchanged.
