Summary

Expresses the sense of the Congress that if Japanese nationals take whales pursuant to a proposal submitted in October 1987 to the International Whaling Commission before the Commission approves such proposal, the Secretary of Commerce should issue a certification under the Magnuson Fishery Conservation and Management Act that such taking diminishes the effectiveness of the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling (thus requiring the Secretary of State to reduce the fishery allocation for Japan).
