The analysis of the treaty, including the obligation to give six months'
notice of any extension and the obligation to have recourse to the Co11rt,
have been analysed in detail in the Judgment of the Court at the juris-
dictional stage and need not be repeated here 2. Suffice it to say that the
requirement that "in case of a dispute in relation to such extension, the
matter shall, at the request of either party, be referred to the International
Court of Justice", was no mere severable clause of minor significance
but an essential element of the entire agreement, the importance of which
to the United Kingdom was underlined in the negotiations. And its
importance was enhanced by providing an amicable method of resolving
a potential dispute.

It hardly needs extensive elaboration to demonstrate that when Iceland
agreed to a specified method whereby an extension of fisheries jurisdiction
by Iceland could be effected vis-It-vis the United Kingdom, her repudia-
tion of that method constituted a material breach of the treaty. It is
almost axiomatic that when an agreement or other instrument itself
provides for the way in which a given thing is to be done, it must be done
in that way or not at all (I.C.J. Reports 1972, p. 68). ·
This approach, based on a clear violation of the treaty, would render
