## About this plate

HONORARY CONSULAR AGENTS, "Agents consulaires honoraires" in the instrument's own heading, which is narrower than "consular corps": career consular officers were in the GREEN diplomatic family in 1978. The distinction between honorary and career consular status is carried in the law and is preserved here.

## About its years

Original to AM 78-5 and confirmed against the 1978 printing, which gives "CC suivi d'un numéro allant de 01 à 99", and, notably, gives the colour as BLEU even in 1978, when every diplomatic sub-series was green. So the honorary consular series has been blue throughout, and it was the only blue series in the diplomatic family in 1978.

## Format notes

art. 6: 'les lettres CC suivies d'un numéro allant de 1 à 99', a 99-registration closed block
