第46解

except/save as otherwise provided

【英文】Except as otherwise provided,where a decision cannot be arrived at by consensus,the matter at issue shall be decided by voting.

【译文】除另有规定外,当某一决策无法取得一致同意时,争论问题由投票决定。

【解释】except as otherwise provided/stipulated意为“除另有规定外”,一般用于法律、商贸、保险等合同。except as otherwise provide/stipulated 的同义短语为except/save as provided/stipulated以及unless otherwise provided/ stipulated。

再如:

1.Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,each party shall eliminate its customs duties on originating textile and apparel goods in accordance with its Schedule to Annex IV(Tariff Elimination).〔译文:除本协议另有规定外,各方应按照附件四《免税》一览表对纺织、服装原产品免征关税。〕

2.Save as is provided in this Ordinance,no claim within the jurisdiction of the Board shall be actionable in any court.〔译文:除非本条例另有规定,否则凡属仲裁处司法管辖权范围内的申诉,不得在任何法庭进行诉讼。〕

3.A notice under subjection(1)shall,unless otherwise provided in it,apply to the income from any property specified therein as it applies to the property itself.〔译文:根据第(1)款发出的通知书,除其中另有订定外,亦适用于通知书内指明的财产的收入,亦如适用于该项财产本身。〕
