 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

Expresses the sense of Congress that: (1) noncompliance with the regulations established by the International Whaling Commission undermines international whale conservation efforts; (2) the President should encourage those nations which have filed objections to the International Whaling Commission's ban on commercial whaling to withdraw their objections; and (3) the Secretary of State, in reviewing the allocations of the total allowable level of foreign fishing under specified agreements, should consider whether a foreign nation filed an objection to the Commission's ban on commercial whaling and has not withdrawn its objection.
