Court President on the first day of the International Court of Justice hearings in Whaling in the Antarctic (Australia v. Japan: New Zealand intervening): I note that, since the Court does not include upon the Bench a judge of Australian  nationality, Australia exercised its right under Article 31, paragraph 2, of the Statute to choose a judge ad hoc to sit in the case: it chose Ms Hilary Charlesworth.
