Recommendation 33

33

Promote pragmatic, compromise-based approach for interim conservation measures at CCAMLR.

Recommendation
The UK should work to prevent a recurrence of this regulatory stalemate. In recognition of the challenges of achieving unanimity, the Government should promote a pragmatic, compromise-based approach that enables interim conservation measures to be adopted while longer-term agreements are negotiated. This would help safeguard marine ecosystems while maintaining CCAMLR’s credibility. (Recommendation, Paragraph 177)
