1.
Unless the treaty otherwise provides, the amendment of multilateral treaties shall be governed by the following paragraphs.
2.
Any proposal to amend a multilateral treaty as between all the parties must be notified to all the contracting States, each one of which shall have the right to take part in:
- (a)
the decision as to the action to be taken in regard to such proposal;
- (b)
the negotiation and conclusion of any agreement for the amendment of the treaty.
3.
Every State entitled to become a party to the treaty shall also be entitled to become a party to the treaty as amended.
4.
The amending agreement does not bind any State already a party to the treaty which does not become a party to the amending agreement; article 30, paragraph 4(b), applies in relation to such State.
5.
Any State which becomes a party to the treaty after the entry into force of the amending agreement shall, failing an expression of a different intention by that State:
- (a)
be considered as a party to the treaty as amended; and
- (b)
be considered as a party to the unamended treaty in relation to any party to the treaty not bound by the amending agreement.
