For this reason, the effectiveness of a unilateral proclamation of independence is largely conditioned by the existence of state structures with the capacity to exercise the functions of government over the territory and obtain social acceptance of their mandate.

One of Mas’s pre-occupations is precisely to have in place these ‘state structures’ – including a tax office, energy infrastructure and security – before any declaration is made (Garcia Pagan 2015). Not only will this satisfy the concerns raised in the White Paper, it also addresses Wellman’s condition that a seceding government must enjoy political legitimacy in the eyes of its own people if the secession itself is to be legitimate (Wellman 2013, 113).
