20/13487: Draft Law on the Repeal of the Intersputnik Law (PDF)
This draft law proposes to repeal the Intersputnik Law, which was enacted in 1973 to implement the International Agreement on the Establishment of the Intersputnik International Organization of Space Communications. The Intersputnik system was a multinational satellite communications organization that provided services to countries in the Eastern Bloc and other parts of the world.
The proposed repeal is based on the following reasons:
- The Intersputnik system is no longer operational.
- The International Agreement on the Establishment of the Intersputnik International Organization of Space Communications has been terminated.
- The Intersputnik Law is no longer necessary and should be repealed to avoid unnecessary legal complications.
The repeal of the Intersputnik Law will have no significant impact on the German legal system or on the interests of German citizens or businesses.
Detailed Explanation
The Intersputnik system was established in 1971 by the Soviet Union and other Eastern Bloc countries. The system consisted of a network of satellites that provided communications services to member countries. The Intersputnik Law was enacted in 1973 to implement the International Agreement on the Establishment of the Intersputnik International Organization of Space Communications. The law granted the Intersputnik system certain privileges and immunities in Germany, such as exemption from taxes and customs duties.
The Intersputnik system ceased operations in 2000. The International Agreement on the Establishment of the Intersputnik International Organization of Space Communications was terminated in 2008. As a result, the Intersputnik Law is no longer necessary and should be repealed.
The repeal of the Intersputnik Law will have no significant impact on the German legal system or on the interests of German citizens or businesses. The law is no longer in force and its repeal will simply remove it from the German statute books.
