1. Each Government affirms that it has sole responsibility for all inspections of that part of the Pipeline under its jurisdiction and of the operations carried out within its jurisdiction in relation to such part, and that it is responsible for its own Inspectors.
2. Without prejudice to paragraph 1 of this Article, each Government shall take steps to ensure that safety or pollution Inspectors of the other Government at all stages of the Construction and Use of the Pipeline have:
a) access, in accordance with the procedures specified in paragraph 3 of this Article to the part of the Pipeline under the jurisdiction of the other; and
b) access to all necessary information including prior notification of any inspections and also including, as appropriate, reports of inspections that have been made. Any information supplied by one Government or competent authority to the other Government or competent authority under this paragraph shall not be further disclosed by the receiving Government or competent authority without the prior approval of the supplying Government or competent authority.
3. Unless the two Governments agree otherwise, following a request by an Inspector of one Government (the ``Visiting Inspector") to the competent authorities of the other Government (the ``Host Government") to visit part of the Pipeline under the jurisdiction of the Host Government, the Operator shall be required to give access to the Visiting Inspector and his equipment provided that he is accompanied by an Inspector appointed by the Host Government. The Host Government shall, upon the request of the Visiting Inspector, procure such information as the Visiting Inspector may require to satisfy himself that the fundamental interests of his Government in respect of safety or pollution prevention are met.
4. Each Government shall ensure that if it is informed or if it becomes apparent to it (whether by or through an Inspector or otherwise) that the safe operation of the Pipeline may be in doubt or that there may be a risk of damage or pollution arising from the Pipeline, this information shall be communicated immediately to the Operator and to an Inspector of the other Government.
5. The competent authorities of the two Governments shall consult one another and agree practical measures for the implementation of paragraph 4 of this Article including the manner of implementation to apply in an emergency.
6. This Article shall also apply to the Associated Facilities.
