Recommendation 23
23
Paragraph: 75
Government has deprioritised Global Ocean Treaty ratification despite SIDS strategy focus.
Conclusion
Given that the UK SIDS Strategy sets out “Ocean and Biodiversity” as an area of focus, it is concerning that the Government has ostensibly deprioritised the ratification of the Global Ocean Treaty by failing to designate the Parliamentary time necessary to pass the prerequisite legislation in this Parliament.
