Decision ID: 002704

In October 1999 the 1992 Fund Assembly considered the application of the 1992 Conventions to unladen tankers on the basis of the conclusions of the 2nd intersessional Working Group and a document submitted by Australia, Canada, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. The Assembly decided, in view of the limited time that had been available to consider the latter document, to instruct the Director to reconvene the Working Group for a further one day meeting. The Director was invited to carry out a further study, with particular emphasis on the ramifications of the proposal by Australia et al.
