International Whaling Commission: Annual and Special Meetings: Minutes and Papers
Date

2001-2004

Description

Records of the International Whaling Commission's annual meetings, and those of special meetings of the commission itself and of its Scientific Committee.

Records of annual meetings comprise agenda, presented papers and a formal record of the proceedings in the form of the chairman's report and the verbatim record of the plenary sessions.

The records of the commission's special meetings are similar to those of the annual meetings, whilst those of the special meetings of the Scientific Committee contain scientific papers presented at the meeting, and the concluding report.

Also represented in the records are reports and papers of the Scientific, Technical and Finance and Administration Committees and the Infractions Sub-committee which examines compliance with the commission's regulations by member governments. Reports of the Technical Committee's working groups dealing with specific topics are also represented in this series, along with papers of the 1945 International Whaling Conference.
