EDM number 1461 in 1989-90, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 25/10/1990.

That this House calls upon Her Majesty's Government to support the proposal to make the Antarctic an international wilderness park; believes that any exploitation of minerals will lead to irreversible ecological damage, both to the land mass and the surrounding seas and ice floes; and calls upon the Government to ensure that Britain withdraws the minerals exploration proposals contained in the Antarctic Minerals Act and supports the wilderness park at the forthcoming Santiago Convention.

This motion has been ammended, see 572A1.

This motion has been signed by a total of 52 MPs.
