20. Infractions

(from "Chairman's Report of the Thirteenth Meeting")


The Technical Committee in accepting their Infraction Sub-Committee's report noted that the position was generally satisfactory and that there was a continuance of the trend to a lower percentage of infractions. The Committee recommended to the Commission that member countries should:

(i)
be reminded of their obligations to maintain regular and adequate inspection of land stations
(ii)
be asked to ensure that infraction returns are in the hands of the Secretary in ample time for the necessary summary to be made before the Annual Meeting of the Commission.

The Commission noted the Technical Committee's report on this subject and approved the two recommendations.
