The work currently under way branches out into three different areas. The next significant bilateral change will be the work we are doing with Germany. The vast majority, if not all, of the other work will be made via the multilateral convention, rather than treaty by treaty. As regards new treaties with other countries, our focus will be on Latin America, Africa and the Far East.
