Dear Foreign and Commonwealth Office,
What are the rules and protocols for diplomatic bags? Please could you send them?
Are there any rules on a diplomatic bags eg size ?
Are there any circumstances when they may be seized or searched?
Do the rules differ between countries or are the rules international?
How do two countries agree on who is allowed to be Diplomats and aolowed diplomatic passports? What different treatment does someone get on a diplomatic passport?
