The Protocol updates the exchange of information Article of the existing Agreement to bring it into line with current OECD standard and practice. The text of the Protocol is available on HM Revenue & Customs' website. The text will shortly be laid as a Schedule to a draft Order in Council for consideration by the House of Commons.
