(1)If His Majesty in Council is pleased to declare—
(a)that under the law in force in the Irish Free State any tax is payable in respect of a subject of charge in respect or which a corresponding tax is payable also in Great Britain; and
(b)that arrangements as specified in the declaration have been made with the Government of the Irish Free State with a view to the granting of relief in cases where there is a charge both to the British Tax and to the Irish tax in respect of the same subject matter;
then, unless and until the declaration is revoked by His Majesty in Council, the arrangements specified therein shall, so far as they relate to the relief to be granted from the British tax, have effect as if enacted in this Act, but only if and so long as the arrangements, so far as they relate to the relief to be granted from the Irish tax, have the effect of law in the Irish Free State.

(3)The obligation as to secrecy imposed by any enactment with regard to any tax to which any declaration made by His Majesty in Council under this section relates shall not prevent the disclosure to any authorised officer of the Government of the Irish Free State of such facts as may be necessary to enable relief to be duly given in accordance with the arrangements specified in the declaration.
