In a communication received on 13 October 2008, the Government of Denmark informed the Secretary-General of the following: "Until further notice, the Protocol shall not apply to Greenland and the Faroe Islands."
Declaration made upon signature:
"Both the Faroe Islands and Greenland are self-governing under Home Rule Acts, which implies inter alia that environmental affairs in general and the areas covered by the Protocol are governed by the right of self-determination.
Signing by Denmark of the Protocol, therefore does not necessarily mean that Danish ratification will in due course include the Faroe Islands and Greenland."
