Protocol Concerning Specially Protected Areas and Wildlife in the Wider Caribbean Region
Resolutions 1991: Conference of Plenipotentiaries
RESOLUTION
The Conference recognizes the discrepancy between the English version and
the other two versions of the Protocol as contained in Article 11 (1) (c) of the Final Act
of 1990, since "including" in the English version is expressed as the equivalent
of "which may include" in the French and Spanish versions.
Consequently the Conference:
Agrees that the chapeau of Article 11(l)(c) is to read as
follows:
"Each party shall adopt appropriate measures to
ensure the protection and recovery of species of flora and fauna listed in Annex III and
may regulate the use of such species in order to ensure and maintain their populations at
optimal levels. With regard to the species listed in Annex 111, each Party shall, in
co-operation with other Parties, formulate, adopt and implement plans for the management
and use of such species, which may include:"
Requests the Depository to proceed as established under
Article 79 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties to make the necessary
adjustments to the English and French texts.
