South African Proposal For Elephants

EDM number 1606 in 1993-94, proposed by Tony Banks on 18/10/1994.

That this House is alarmed to learn of the proposal by South Africa to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species to downlist its elephant population from Appendix I to Appendix II thus allowing renewed international trade in elephant products; notes that since elephants were placed on Appendix I there has been a dramatic fall in poaching and a collapse of the world market in ivory; demands that Her Majesty's Government opposes any lessening of the protection currently afforded to African elephants; and calls upon President Mandela to veto the South African proposal.

This motion has been signed by a total of 152 MPs.
