b) shall be immune from national service obligations;
c) shall be immune together with their spouses and relatives dependent on them from immigration restrictions;
d) shall be accorded the privilege of bringing into the country reasonable amounts of foreign currency for the purposes of the project or for personal use of such personnel, and of withdrawing any such amounts brought into the country, or, in accordance with the relevant foreign exchange regulations, such amounts as may be earned therein by such personnel in the execution of the Programme;
e) shall be accorded together with their spouses and relatives dependent on them the same repatriation facilities in the event of international crises as diplomatic envoys.
All personnel of the Executing Agency's contractors shall enjoy inviolability for all papers and documents relating to the project.
The Participating Governments shall either exempt from, or bear the cost of any taxes, duties, fees or levies which they may impose on any foreign firm or organization which may be retained by the Executing Agency and on the foreign personnel of any such firm or organization in respect of:
a) the salaries or wages earned by such personnel in the execution of the Programme;
b) any equipment, materials and supplies brought into the country for the purposes of the Programme or which, after having been brought into the country, may be subsequently withdrawn therefrom;
c) any substantial quantities of equipment, materials and supplies obtained locally for the execution of the Programme, such as, for example, petrol and spare parts for the operation and maintenance of equipment mentioned under b) above, with the provision that the types and approximate quantities to be exempted and relevant procedures to be followed shall be agreed upon with the Participating Governments and, as appropriate, recorded in the annual and general plans of action; and
d) as in the case of concessions currently granted to the personnel of the Sponsoring Agencies, any property brought, including one privately owned automobile per employee, by the firm or organization or its personnel for their personal use or consumption or which after having been brought into the country, may subsequently be withdrawn therefrom upon departure of such personnel.
The privileges and immunities to which such firm or organization and its personnel may be entitled, referred to in the paragraphs above, may be waived by the Executing Agency where, in its opinion, the immunity would impede the course of justice and can be waived without prejudice to the successful completion of the Programme or to the interest of the Executing Agency.
The Executing Agency shall provide the Participating Governments with the list of personnel to whom the privileges and immunities enumerated above shall apply.
