Japanese whalers' location to remain secret
Andrew Darby in Hobart
January 3, 2008

THE anti-whaling group Sea Shepherd has condemned the Federal Government's decision to keep the location of the Japanese whaling fleet secret.

The move was a betrayal that would withhold vital information from anti-whaling groups, Paul Watson, of Sea Shepherd, said.

"Once again the cards are stacked against us, as governments continue to co-operate with each other to maintain the status quo," he said, adding the Government owed it to the Australian public to say where the fleet was.

The information would greatly assist the search for the whalers now under way by Sea Shepherd and Greenpeace protest ships over an ocean area more than 7000 kilometres wide.
