19th May, 1928, regarding the substitution of the declaration, which
was to have been annexed to the said Convention, by an exchange of
letters, I have the honour to declare, in the name of my Govern
ment, that the latter will recognise the existence of British religious,
scholastic and medical establishments, as well as of charitable
institutions recognised as existing in Turkey before the 80th October,
1914, and that it will favourably examine the case of other similar
British institutions actually existing in Turkey at the date of the
Treaty of Peace signed to-day, with a view to regularise their
position.
The establishments and institutions mentioned above will, as
regards fiscal charges of every kind, be treated on a footing of equality
with similar Turkish establishments and institutions, and will be
subject to the administrative arrangements of a public character, as
well as to the laws and regulations, governing the latter. It is,
however, understood that the Turkish Government will take into
account the conditions under which these establishments carry on
their work, and, in so far as schools are concerned, the practical
organisation of their teaching arrangements.
