At the second session of the Conference at Caracas, the Secretary-General of the UN had referred to the need for some institutional means for identifying problems arising out of the implementation of a new Iaw of the sea treaty and had said: ‘A periodic assembly of the parties to the Convention, for the review of common problems and for the development of ways to meet any difficulties produced by new uses of the seas, would be one possibility worth considering’ (Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, Official Records, Vol 1, Second Session, Plenary, 14th Meeting, para 42). In subsequent debates, support for this idea was received from Sri Lanka (Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, Official Records, Vol V, Fourth Session Plenary, 59th Meeting, p 17). Portugal (Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, Official Records, Vol V, Fourth Session Plenary,60th Meeting, p 25).

For example, the substantial increase in offshore drilling within the 200-mile zones of states has created a concern for the impact of these activities on the marine environment, and already the United Nations Environment Programme has taken measures to develop the law regarding environmental damage as a result of offshore exploration and exploitation. The Working Group of Experts on Environmental Law was set up as a result of Decision 91 (V), 25 May 1977, of the Governing Council of UNEP. For the report of the Working Group's Second Session, see UNEP/WG 14/4, 12 April 1978.

In a resolution expressing concern over disasters such as the, inviting the General Assembly to urge competent international institutions and organizations such as the Third Law of the Sea Conference, the Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization, and the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, to expedite and intensify their activities relating to the prevention of pollution and the determination of responsibilities in this matter'. Thus, the identification of organizations to fulfil tasks currently envisaged in the negotiating texts is not necessarily dependent on the successful completion of UNCLOS., UNEP has also endeavoured to promote an increase in the activities of international organizations in the field of marine pollution and a clarification of their roles.

The point has not, however, gone unnoticed. For example, at the 96th Plenary Meeting of the Seventh Session of the Conference on 5 May 1978, the delegate of Portugal noted that ‘in view of the increasingly important role of international organizations, the possibility of their participation in the convention in accordance with highly selective criteria deserved thorough study’.

Indeed, when the proposal for referring sea lanes and traffic separation schemes to an international organization was made by the UK at the Second Session of UNCLOS.IMCO was mentioned as the organization that should approve such schemes (Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea, Official Records, Vol II, Second Session, Second Committee, 11th Meeting, p 125). If IMCO is to be the ‘competent international organization’ under Article 41(4), then the consequential reference in Article 41(5) to a ‘competent international organization’ must also be treated as a reference to IMCO.
