(1) Import Licence - Export licence is required in Japan under CITES to export to U.K. crocodile-skin watchband (CSW). In addition, importers must obtain import licence. It takes much time and work to export CSW to U.K. - It is requested that GOU:
-- repeals the requirement for import licence in U.K. for import of CSW, so that export licence issued in Japan suffices, and
-- dispenses with export/import licence requirement for samples under ATA Carnets.
- Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES)
