For this meeting, it is proposed that the Union makes a proposal to amend Appendix I to the Convention to increase the protection of a species of whales, namely the Mediterranean subpopulation of Ziphius cavirostris, and the bird species Coracias garrulus, throughout their distribution range, including outside the Union, on the basis of the following considerations: (1) the inclusion of such species is scientifically sound; (2) such an inclusion is consistent with the EU legislation; and (3) the Union is committed to international cooperation for the protection of biodiversity.
