...the Separation Agreement, which established...

The pacts were guaranteed by the Malaysian government in the Separation Agreement that established Singapore as a sovereign state.

In British English, should "that" be changed to "which" and a comma be put next to "Agreement". (Hence, " the Separation Agreement, which established...")

Thanks.

No.


That said, the part that/which established Singapore as a sovereign state can function both as a relative (dependent) and an independent clause.
