IWC whaling proposal 'offensive'

Foreign Affairs Minister Longchamp Le Pliage Tote Uk Murray McCully says an International Whaling Commission (IWC) proposal, which would allow hunting to continue in the Southern Ocean Whale Retreat, falls seriously short of giving a strong basis for a diplomatic answer.

"I personally think it's bothersome," Mr McCully said.

"The hook limits proposed in the Southerly Ocean are unrealistic. The proposal to include fin whales in the Southern Ocean is inflammatory. New Zealanders will not take this."

He said New Zealand's ultimate goal was to view an end to all whaling in the Southern region Pacific.

Mr McCully will continue to work on a diplomatic solution and see if negotiations can be brought back on track.

Even so, he said the diplomatic process can be abandoned if it stopped becoming productive.

The IWC proposal will permit Japan, Norway and Iceland Hollister Polo Shirt Uk to stay commercial whaling for another decade, inspite of a global ban.

It advertised between 4000 and Eighteen,000 whales could be preserved over the next 10 years below the compromise proposal, which packages lower catch limits for anyone three whaling nations than the do-it-yourself imposed quotas they have today.

There would be rigorous keeping track of of whaling, and no other countries in the 88 nation commission would be ready to start whaling operations during the Ten year plan.

The environmentally sensitive Southern Ocean would be given as a sanctuary, but whalers coming from Japan would still be permitted to take a number of the sea mammals from the seas about Antarctica.

The proposal will be decided in at the next IWC meeting around June.

"The proposal to include udemrrrket whales in the Southern Beach is inflammatory. New Zealanders won't accept this," Mister McCully said.

"New Zealand has always declared the proposal must offer significant improvement over the status quo and that any proposal will likely be tested against our dedication to stop whaling in the Southern Water.

"This does not meet those lab tests."

At a protest around Wellington today, Greenpeace New Zealand executive overseer Bunny McDiarmid said the estimate was unacceptable.

The Government had to start negotiations with other anti whaling countries to see if they could specialist a better deal, she reported.

"We need to see an end to whaling inside Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary, it's actually not good enough to just reduce (them).

"If the Cheap Bailey Button Ugg Boots IWC is going to stick alongside one another and come out with some upcoming there's going to have to be some compromises."

Greenpeace wanted to view an end to all commercial whaling because it had wiped out some whale species Tiffany Uk Bracelets and brought others towards brink of extinction.

They would accept a phase out method ending with no commercial whaling.

The pin Party called on the Federal government to vote against the proposal.

The future of whales hangs "precariously" to the ability of campaigners over the following two months, MP Gareth Hughes reported.

"This issue is dear to the hearts of New Zealanders and the public know that they have the power to convince their Government to protect the actual whales."

Mr Gaines said if the proposal has been accepted hundreds of whales might be slaughtered every year and would likely reward Japan for splitting existing international law.
