Council of Europe in Respect of the Group of States Against Corruption
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and
the laws of the United States, including section 1 of the International
Organizations Immunities Act (22 U.S.C. 288) (the "Act"), and having
found that the Council of Europe in Respect of the Group of States
Against Corruption (GRECO) is a public international organization in
which the United States participates within the meaning of the Act, I
hereby designate GRECO as a public international organization entitled
to enjoy the privileges, exemptions, and immunities conferred by the
Act. This designation is not intended to abridge in any
respect privileges, exemptions, or immunities that such organization
may have acquired or may acquire by international agreement or by law.
