Privileges and Immunities of the Sample Clauses

The "Privileges and Immunities" clause establishes the rights, protections, and legal immunities granted to certain individuals or entities, often in the context of international organizations, diplomats, or government officials. In practice, this clause typically exempts these parties from certain local laws, taxes, or legal proceedings, allowing them to perform their official duties without interference. Its core function is to ensure that those covered can operate independently and effectively, free from undue influence or legal obstacles that could hinder their official responsibilities.
Privileges and Immunities of the members of the team 1. The privileges and immunities granted to the members of the team of the Agency aim at ensuring successful exercise of their official functions in the course of the actions carried out in accordance with the Operational Plan on the territory of Montenegro. 2. Papers, correspondence and assets of members of the team shall be inviolable, except in case of measures of execution which are permitted pursuant to paragraph 7. 3. Members of the team shall enjoy immunity from the criminal jurisdiction of Montenegro in respect of the acts performed in the exercise of their official functions in the course of the actions carried out in accordance with the Operational Plan. In the event of an allegation of a criminal offence being committed by a member of the team, the Executive Director of the Agency and the competent authority of the home Member State shall be notified immediately. Prior to the initiation of the proceeding before the court, the Executive Director of the Agency, after careful consideration of any representation made by the competent authority of the home Member State and the competent authorities of Montenegro, shall certify to the court whether the act in question was performed in the exercise of their official functions in the course of the actions carried out in accordance with the operational plan. Pending the certification by the Executive Director of the Agency, the Agency and the home Member State shall refrain from taking any measure likely to jeopardise possible subsequent criminal prosecution of the member of the team by the competent authorities of Montenegro. If the act was committed in the exercise of official functions, the proceeding shall not be initiated. If the act was not performed in the exercise of official functions, the proceeding may continue. The certification by the Executive Director of the Agency shall be binding upon the competent authorities of Montenegro. Privileges granted to members of the team and immunity from the criminal jurisdiction of Montenegro do not exempt them from the jurisdiction of the home Member State. The immunity of members of the team from the criminal, civil and administrative jurisdiction of Montenegro may be waived by the home Member State as the case may be. Such a waiver must always be an express waiver. 4. Members of the team shall enjoy immunity from the civil and administrative jurisdiction of Montenegro in respect of all acts performed by them in the exercise of their o...
