Note 33:2 — IV.
Reading edition
Some other points in Mr Boström’s Memorandum were rejected by the Norwegian side. They ran as follows:
1:o Before a Consul was nominated, opportunity should be given to the Minister for Foreign affairs to make such observations as he might think necessary.
2:o In the Consular Diploma, the King shall be styled King of Sweden and Norway — not King of Norway and Sweden, as was the case in Norway — as these Diplomas are intended for presentation to Foreign powers, and the King always makes use of this title abroad Foreign powers.
3:o As long as the appointment of separate consuls was not approved of by Foreign powers and so long as ambassadors in a Foreign conntry had not been stationed, the joint Consular Service should continue its functions. — Mr Hagerup did not refer to these points in his reply partly because the difficulties of his agreeing on them with Mr Boström were not, according to his own account, so very insurmountable.
