Today(04.10.2016), the delegates at CITES Cop17 adopted a resolution which “recommends that all Parties and non-Parties in whose jurisdiction there is a legal domestic market for ivory that is contributing to poaching or illegal trade, take all necessary legislative, regulatory and enforcement measures to close their domestic markets for commercial trade in raw and worked ivory as a matter of urgency. The resolution came on the 2nd last day of one of the biggest CITES meetings taking place at the Sandton Convention Centre in Johannesburg South Africa. Currently, 183 governments are members of CITES. This resolution adopted provides a framework for all CITES governments to address their national markets for elephant ivory. To look at some of the resolutions that have been made we are helped by :
