Article 22.

Should the Permanent Court of International Justice or the arbitral tribunal find that a decision of a court of law or of any other authority of one of the High Contracting Parties is wholly or partly at variance with intemational law, and should the law of that Party not allow or only inadeąuately allow of the conseąuences of the decision in ąuestion being annulled by administrative procedurę, the judicial sentence or arbitral award shall specify the naturę and extent of the reparation to be granted to the injured Party.

Article 23.

The High Contracting Parties undertake respectively to abstain, for the duration of any proceedings opened in virtue of the provisions of the present Treaty, from all measures likely to have a prejudicial effect on the execution of the decision to be given by the Permanent Court of Intemational Justice or by the arbitral tribunal or on the arrangements proposed by the Permanent Conciliation Commission, and in generał to abstain from any action whatsoever that might aggravate or extend the dispute.

In any case, and particularly if the ąuestion on which the Parties differ arises out of acts already committed or about to be committed, the Conciliation Commission, or if the latter is not competent, the Permanent Court of Intemational Justice acting in accordance with Article 41 of its Statute, or the arbitral tribunal shall lay down within the shortest possible time the provisional measures to be adopted.
