Hi Johannes,
Could you please tell me where I might locate the text of this law ?
I've heard many people comment on CITES in the EEC, but this is the
first reference to the actual law that I've seen (thanks very much
for sharing it with us!). I think it might be interesting for many
people in the group (especially those of us here in Europe) if we could
include a copy of these laws in the CP archives, since there are many
contradictory practices by European nurseries regarding the need
for CITES permits.
