Meetings on the Future of the International Whaling Commission took place in June 2010.

Our report on the meeting is here.

Sidney Holt also blogged extensively about the meeting.  Check out his blog!

The ASOC report on the 33rd ATCM is now available.

ASOC is pleased that the Independent Adjudicator for our respective objections to the proposed MSC certifications of the Antarctic krill and Ross Sea Toothfish fisheries upheld parts of our objections and remanded the decisions to the certifiers for reconsideration and rescoring.  Read the adjudicator's remand on toothfish, and our response to the certifier's reply.

The Krill Industry report for June is now available.
