Whale Sanctuary (No. 2)

EDM number 946 in 1999-00, proposed by Lindsay Hoyle on 11/07/2000.

That this House notes with concern the opposition to the proposed whale sanctuary in the South Pacific from Japan and Norway, which want a 14-year old ban on commercial whaling lifted; welcomes the recommendation of a 4.7 million-square-mile sanctuary in the South Pacific in order to preserve the whale population in this part of the world; and calls on the British Government to continue to press for such a sanctuary during the annual meeting of the Whaling Commission.

This motion has been signed by a total of 80 MPs.
