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.
