(1) The competent authorities of the Contracting States shall exchange such information as is necessary for carrying out the provisions of this Agreement or of the domestic laws of the Con- tracting States concerning taxes covered by the Agreement inso- far as the taxation thereunder is not contrary to the Agreement. The exchange of information is not restricted by Article 1. Any information received by a Contracting State shall be treated as secret in the same manner as information obtained under the domestic laws of that State and shall be disclosed only to per- sons or authorities (including courts and administrative bodies) involved in the assessment or collection of, the enforcement or prosecution in respect of, or the determination of appeals in rela- tion to, the taxes covered by the Agreement. Such persons or authorities shall use the information only for such purposes and only in accordance with the restrictions imposed by the compe- tent authority of the other Contracting State. They may disclose the information in public court proceedings or in judicial deci- sions provided that the competent authority of the other Con- tracting State raises no objection. They may transmit the infor- mation to other agencies only with the prior consent of the com- petent authority of the other Contracting State.
