By way of derogation from paragraph 1, neither this Directive nor those referred to in Article 1 (2) shall apply to the overseas departments of the French Republic. However, the French Republic may give notice, by means of a declaration, that these Directives apply to those territories - subject to measures to adjust to their extreme remoteness - from the first day of the second month following deposit of the declaration.
