ABSTRACT -

The

United

Nations

and the Law of the Sea

Convention

1982
The

United

Nations

adopted the Law of the Sea

Convention

(LOSC) on April 30,
1982
but the saga began in 1967
when Arvid

Pardo,

the

Permanent

Représentative

ofMalta to the

United

Nations,

called for a constitution for the océans of the world and a charter for its sea-bed, its resources, its subsoil and the air above it. The third

United

Nations

Law of the Sea

Conférence

(UNCLOS III) was convened in 1973
and terminated in the historié vote at New York on April 30,
1982
where 130
nations voted for the Law of the Sea

Convention,

only four voted against and seventeen abstained. The Law of the Sea

Convention

is a giant step forward in world and human affairs because it is concerned with sharing the earth's underwater resources amongst the earth's inhabitants rather than on the basis offirst corneIfirst served. The

Convention

controls, protects, shares and develops the océans for ail mankind.

Questions

of 12 mile limits, exclusive

économie

zones, continental shelves, territorial water rights of transit and innocent passage are also dealt with. Much old law is codified, much new law is created and even for non signatories there is much new customary international law. The Law of the Sea

Convention

is perhaps the greatest législative triumph of the

United

Nations

in its 40
year history. E n 1981
