Channel Islands and Isle of Man »

David Anderson
1 The Bailiwick of Guernsey and the Bailiwick of Jersey, known collectively as ‘the Channel Islands’, and the Isle of Man are three insular territories under British sovereignty as Crown Dependencies (see also Islands).

The judgment may relate to the merits of a case, to procedural issues, or to preliminary objections, whether to the Tribunal’s jurisdiction over the particular case or to the admissibility of an application. The same right exists for non-procedural Orders, notably Orders prescribing provisional...

Straddling and Highly Migratory Fish Stocks »

David Anderson
1 In the past, the different species of fish swimming in the sea were regulated in broadly the same manner by the rules of international law. Leaving aside pearl fisheries and seal fisheries, the rules applied equally to all types of living resources. Thus, in 1958, provisions concerning fish stocks of all types were included in the Convention on the High Seas and the Convention on Fishing and the Conservation of the Living Resources of the High Seas (Fisheries, High Seas; Fishery Zones and Limits). A limited departure from this general approach came in the...
