The Protocol Relating to the Status of Refugees also known as the New York Protocol entered into force on October 4, 1967. Where the United Nations 1951 Conventionrelating to the Status of Refugees had restricted refugee status to those whose circumstances had come about as a result of events occurring before 1 January 1951 , as well as giving States party to the Convention the option of interpreting this as events occurring in Europe or events occurring in Europe or elsewhere , the 1967 Protocol removed both the temporal and geographic restrictions. However, it also gave those States which had previously ratified the 1951 Convention and chosen to use the geographically restricted definition the option to retain that restriction.
