The effect of this Order, together with the Visiting Forces (Designation) Order 1997, is to designate as countries to which the Visiting Forces Act 1952 applies all those States which have accepted the invitation of NATO to take part in the Partnership for Peace and which are parties to the Agreement of 19 June 1995.
