27. Infractions

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



The Infractions Sub-Committee reported to the Technical Committee on their concern that the minimum size-limits fixed by the Commission were not being properly enforced by all member nations. As a result of its deliberations the Sub-Committee urged that international observation should be extended to all pelagic and land whaling stations as soon as possible. The Technical Committee concurred with the views of the Infractions Sub-Committee. On the proposal of the Commissioner for Australia seconded by the Commissioner for the United States of America the Commission accepted the report on this subject by the Technical Committee.
