Summary

Delegates at the Resumed Review Conference met on Wednesday at the UN Headquarters in New York. Delegates continued their discussion on the review of the implementation of the recommendations adopted at the 2006 and 2010 meetings, including on MCS and compliance and enforcement and on developing states and non-parties. Participants also discussed the issues of labor conditions and the avoidance of the transfer of a disproportionate burden of conservation action to developing states.
