Abstract

Decision directed to Others

Parties are encouraged to: a) draw upon the Directory of illegal trade in rhinoceros horn focal points maintained by the CITES Secretariat, as may be needed, to facilitate contact between relevant agencies in different countries on matters related to rhinoceros poaching and illegal rhinoceros specimen trade; and b) if included in the directory, immediately inform the Secretariat if the details of their national focal point should be updated.
