In October 2000 the 1992 Fund Executive Committee and 1971 Fund Administrative Council noted that the incident had caused pollution in Singapore (Party to the 1992 Civil Liability and 1992 Fund Conventions), Indonesia (Party to the 1992 Civil Liability only) and Malaysia (Party to the 1969 Civil Liability and 1971 Fund Conventions). The 1992 Fund Executive Committee and the 1971 Fund Administrative Council authorised the Director to make final settlements on behalf of the 1992 Fund and the 1971 Fund respectively of all claims arising out of the incident, to the extent that the claims did not give rise to questions of principle which had not previously been decided by any of the governing bodies of the two Funds.
