Abstract

Decision directed to Standing Committee

The Standing Committee shall review Question 7 of the “Decision Tree Analysis – Captivity” in Annex 1 to Resolution Conf. 17.8 (Rev. CoP19) with attention to ensuring there are no grounds for concern that any transfer of Appendix I species will stimulate further illegal or irregular trade or benefit those involved in the illegal or irregular transaction that gave rise to confiscation and recommend revisions to the 20th meeting of the Conference of the Parties as appropriate.
