Table 9: Cases of illegal traffic which have been closed in the reporting year

Table 9 seeks listing the cases of illegal traffic which have been closed in the reporting year. In that regard, the term "closed" means that either the court has taken a final decision on a fine or prison or that an administrative fine has been issued.

The Basel Convention provides that each Party is to introduce appropriate national/domestic legislation to prevent and punish illegal traffic (Article 9 paragraph 5) and to take appropriate measures to implement and enforce the provisions of the Convention (Article 4 paragraph 4).

Data in the table can be filtered by regions of the world, Party and reporting year.
