On receipt of the candidatures, the Government of the Republic of the Ivory Coast shall have one month in which to agree to or reject them.

Once that time-limit has expired, on in the event of rejection, the personnel who have not been accepted shall revert to the jurisdiction of the Government of the French Republic.

The latter shall, however, as far as possible, submit new proposals which may be accepted or rejected on the conditions set forth above.

Article 6. The notification of acceptance of any candidate by the Government of the Republic of the Ivory Coast must indicate the nature of the employment offered and the possible duty station or stations which may not be more than two.

The Government of the Republic of the Ivory Coast may change the duty station or stations indicated, on the one hand, if the accepted candidate does not start his journey for over one month after the date specified in the notification of his acceptance and, on the other, if there is an urgent need for service which was totally unforeseen at the time of notification.

The appointment of accepted candidates shall be announced by decision of the competent authority of the Republic of the Ivory Coast for a duration of two years and shall take effect from the date of arrival of the officials concerned in the territory of that Republic.

Any transfer of personnel covered by this Agreement contemplated by the Government of the Republic of the Ivory Coast which would result in a change in the level or nature of the post to which he has been appointed by virtue of article 5 above shall be the subject of consultations between the two Governments.

Article 7. Personnel governed by the legislation and regulations of the French Republic who, on the date of entry into force of this Agreement, are employed in the territory of the Republic of the Ivory Coast in services which are under the authority of the Government of the latter shall be considered as having been made available to the Republic of the Ivory Coast so that they may continue to exercise their functions.

They shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement. However, the expiry of the period of assignment specified in article 6 above shall, in their case, coincide with the termination of their tour of duty under the relevant regulations and the corresponding leave entitlement.

Article 8. The period of assignment shall include the tour of duty and the corresponding leave entitlement. It shall be for two years in the case of personnel subject to the system of annual leave and 30 months for personnel subject to the system of biennial leave.

The tour of duty in the Ivory Coast may be extended in the manner prescribed in the statutes to which the person concerned is subject, unless the competent medical authorities advise otherwise, by a simple exchange of letters between the Contracting Parties at least one month before the expiry of the normal term. Any extension for a period of more than four months shall require the consent of the officials concerned.
