1. Where any assistance requested under this Agreement may infringe the sovereignty, security public policy or any other substantive national interest of the requested Party, or prejudice any legitimate commercial or professional interest, such assistance may be declined by the requested Contracting Party or provided subject to any terms and conditions it may require.
