«Статус Конвенции об охране дикой фауны и флоры и природных сред обитания в Европе (ETS N 104) (Берн, 19 сентября 1979 года)» [рус., англ.] (по состоянию на 25.01.2011)

from the Permanent Representative of Iceland, dated 24 April 1996, registered at the Secretariat General on 25 April 1996 - Or. Engl.
With this letter, and in accordance with Article 17, paragraph 3, of the Convention, the Government of Iceland notifies objections to the amendments adopted by the Standing Committee on 26 January 1996, regarding inclusion of Monodon monoceros, Globicephala macrorhynchus, Stenella frontalis, Kogia breviceps, Balaenoptera edeni and Balaenoptera physalus in Appendix II of the Convention.
As has been clearly expressed by the Icelandic delegation at the meeting of the Standing Committee, no criteria were used for including cetaceans in Appendix II. It is this lack of defined criteria, as well as disregard of available scientific information on population and population trends of species, which is unacceptable to Iceland. The decision is also not in conformity with the results of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development. In particular, Iceland pointed out that the proposal included species which, according to reliable scientific data, are not threatened. A particular concern of the Icelandic Government is the inclusion of Balaenoptera physalus and Monodon monoceros in Appendix II.
We would also like to state that if new scientific information shows that these species are in fact threatened, measured against reasonable criteria, taking into account the precautionary principle, the Government of Iceland is willing to reconsider this notification.
With respect to the other species concerned on which no data was provided, Iceland will reassess its position when defined criteria have been developed by the Standing Committee and data provided on the state of these species.
