Abstract

In the end, the irony was not only unforeseen, but also unfortunate and bitter for fishers all over the world. At the final record vote on its adoption at the 93rd Session of the International Labour Conference (ILC), the proposed Convention on Work in the Fishing Sector did have the required two-thirds majority but the vote was declared invalid because it did not attain quorum (see pg 47). It is doubtful if there has ever been such a precedent in the history of the International Labour Organization (ILO)—that a draft Convention and Recommendation adopted by the relevant Committee have not been adopted by the ILC for want of quorum.
