さあ！諸君！捕鯨問題だ！

鯨肉および製品の貿易に関する決議（1994年、第７決議）
−−−Appendix 7. IWC Resolution 1994-7
RESOLUTION ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE IN WHALE MEAT AND PRODUCTS
つづき

Now, THEREFORE, the International Whaling
Commission:

(1) CALLS UPON all IWC members to enforce strictly
their existing international obligations under the
ICRW, including fully complying with the moratorium
on commercial whaling declared in paragraph 10(e) of
the Schedule and under CITES, relating to the control
of international trade in whale products.

(2) REAFFIRMS the need for Contracting Governments
fully to observe earlier IWC resolutions addressing
trade questions, particularly resolutions prohibiting
the import of any whale or whale product taken or
processed under the jurisdiction of any non-IWC
member countries;

(3) OBSERVES that any commercial international trade
in whale products obtained from research whaling or
fisheries bycatch makes illegal commerce more
difficult to detect and undermines the effectiveness of
the IWC's conservation program:

(4) CONSIDERS, THEREFORE, that meat and
products from research whaling should be utilised
entirely for domestic consumption; and

(5) INVITES each Contracting Government to report to
the Infracticlns Sub-committee at every Annual
Meeting:

(a) information on whale meat and products available
on its domestic market and the specific source of
those items (i.e., commercial whaling, research
whaling, fisheries bycatch);
(b) any shipments of whale meat and products
intercepted in international commerce, especially
those involving their nationals or interests, and
what measures the Government has taken in
response: and
(c) any other developments relevant to trade in
whale meat or products (e.g., new laws or regulations).

以前から狡い、うさん臭いと言われていた日本のやりかた、海外に子会社、
合弁会社を設けて規制を逃れるというやりかたが、複数の違法摘発で
唐揚げ状態になってるのに、DNA調査の協力者がグリーンピースの元活動家
だからどーとか、なんか決定的に思考回路が狂ってるんじゃないかと
思います。
