(2) The Governor General may by order—

(b) confer upon—
(i) persons who are representatives (whether of governments or not) of any organ of the organisation or are members of any committee of the organisation or of any organ thereof,
(ii) such number of officers of the organisation as may be specified in the order, being the holders of such high offices in the organisation as may be specified,
(iii) such persons employed on missions on behalf of the organisation as may be so specified,
to such extent as may be specified in the order, the immunities and privileges set out in Part II of the Schedule;
(c) confer upon such other classes of officers and servants of the organisation as may be specified in the order, to such extent as may be so specified, the immunities and privileges set out in Part III of the Schedule;
(d) confer upon the technical cooperation personnel of the Commonwealth Secretariat who are not nationals of Saint Lucia, the immunities and privileges set out in Part V of the Schedule; (Inserted by Act 5 of 2000)
(e) confer upon an OPCW inspector the immunities and privileges set out in Part VI of the Schedule, (Inserted by Act 15 of 2001)
and Part IV of the Schedule shall have effect for the purpose of extending to the staffs of such representatives and members as are mentioned in paragraphs (b)(i) and to the families of officers of the organisation, any immunities and privileges conferred on the representatives, members or officers under that paragraph except in so far as the operation of the said Part IV is excluded by the order conferring the immunities and privileges.
However, the order shall be so framed as to secure that there are not conferred on any person any immunities or privileges greater in extent than those which, at the time of the making of the order, are required to be conferred on that person in order to give effect to any international agreement in that behalf.
