Data entry notes: 
Ratification required for EIF. Article 24.1 Following signature of this Arrangement, each Participant will notify the Central Contact Point of the completion of any internal procedures necessary for this Arrangement to come into effect for that Participant. This Arrangement will enter into effect on the date that the Central Contact Point receives such notification from two of the Participants." As of 15 March 2017, no states had ratified: "In order for the TVTA to come into effect after signature, the Arrangement also required notification to the ‘Central Contact Point’ from any two Participants. The Central Contact point for the Arrangement is New Zealand. The notification should indicate that the Participants have completed any internal process necessary for the Arrangement to come into effect for them. These would then be lodged on the secure part of the TVM website. An assessment of the status of the Arrangement reported at the 8 February 2016, showed that no notifications had been lodged. This remains unchanged to date [15 March 2017]." -- https://www.ffa.int/system/files/CP13_1617%20RFP%20Te%20Vaka%20Toa%20Review.pdf
