68. On 4 August 2014, the Commission was informed by its Chair of a potential
breach of confidentiality that had allegedly taken place during the international
workshop on the new developments on the Law of the Sea, which was held at the

University of Xiamen, China, from 24 to 25 April 2014. The allegations concerned
the potential disclosure of internal procedures of the Commission and the disclosure
of information contained in a note verbale from a State, which was not in the public
domain.

69. In accordance with the rules of procedure of the Commission ( CLCS/40/Rev.1 )
related to an alleged breach of confidentiality by a member of the Commission, and

considering the nature of the allegation, the Commission decided to refer the matter
to the Committee on Confidentiality in order to establish the facts. The Committee
constituted an investigating body comprising all five of its members (Messrs. Park
(Chair), Heinesen, Kalngui, Marques and Uścinowicz).

Report by the Chairman of the Committee
70. The Chair of the Committee on Confidentiality, Mr. Park, reported that the

Committee and its investigating body had held meeti ngs to consider the case
referred to the Committee and to investigate the allegations. He presented to the
Commission a report providing information on the work carried out by the
Investigating Body to ascertain whether any behaviour contrary to annex II t o the
rules of procedure had occurred during the international workshop. The Chair

informed the Commission that, after a thorough examination of the report of the
investigating body, the Committee had endorsed it by consensus, on 2 September
2014, and had subsequently reached the conclusions set out below.

Dear Mr. Scaroni,

Reference is made to the press release issued by Eni Sp.A. ("Eni"),

sharing contracts, awarded by the Government of the Republic of Kenya, for
the acquisition of exploration blocks (L-21, L-23 and L-24) (the "Specified
Area").

The Government of the Federal Republic of Somalia (the "Somali
Government") hereby informs you that the Specified Area lies within the

maritime zones of Somalia. The Somali Government strongly condemns
Eni's illegal activities in the Specified Area as a grave violation
sovereignty with severe repercussions, including permanent damages to its
environmental and economic well-being. The Somali Government,

therefore, urges Eni to immediately cease and desist from such illegal
activities.

Senior officials of the Somali Government h"hve,in the past: strongly

promptly provide it with all documents relating to its activities in the

Specified Area, including an inventory of all fees and fmancial
compensation provided to the Government of the Republic of Kenya and/or
any other public or private entity. Mona Al-Sharmani, Senior Legal Advisor

Eni's position is that it was lawfully awarded the three production sharing contracts
by the Governmentf the Republic of Kenya and that these licences are consistent with

Kenya's maritime zone, and thereforeactivities in the Specified Area are not "illegal"
asdescribed in your letter.

In those circumstances, we respectfully ask you to understand that eni is not

prepared to and cannot cease and desist from continuing its activities pursuant to the three
production sharing contracts entered into with the Governmentblic of Kenya.

We note your request for "all documents relating to its [eni's] activities in the

Specified Area, including an inventory of allfees and financial compensation provided to the
Government of the Republic of Kenya and/or any other public or private entity".

Unfortunately, eni is not in a position to provide this inform ation and documentation aswe
are bound by confidentiality obligations towards the Governmentblic of Kenya.

Yours faithfully. Annex 76

I make reference to the letters of 26 July 2014 (received on 5 August 2014), Ref:

MOFA/SFR/OM/1950/2014 and 16 September 2014 (received on 17 September 2014), Ref.

(SUM: 01/115/XIG/2014) addressed to our Chief Executive Officer and copied to Ms. Federica

Mogherini, Ministry for Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Italy.

I would like to emphasize that the maritime border dispute between the Federal Republic of

Somalia ("Somalia") and the Republic of Kenya ("Kenya") is a matter that can only be resolved

between the two sovereign States. Indeed, Somalia has recently instituted proceedings against

Kenya before the International Court of Justice.Annex 79

In this respect, we would like to clarify that three production sharing contracts have been

awarded by Kenia to our affiliate eni Kenia B.V. and we cannot cease and desist from our
activities given our existing contractual obligations towards Kenya. Nonetheleeni Kenya B.V.

has formally informed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Kenya of your position and of your

request that all the activities are suspendeeni Kenya B.V. has also provided copy of the letter

from the Attorney-General of Somalia to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Attorney

General's office of Kenya.
I would also like to respectfully underline that the activities carried out so far and those

scheduled in the near term have not and will not cause any damage to Somalia's environmental

and economic well-being.

Considering the situation, we consider not applicable the 'penalty fine' purported by the letter of

16 September 2014 sent to us by the Attorney-General.
I hope that the two States will be able to find a mutually acceptable solution to their dispute for

their benefit and for that of the companies investing in the area.

I am available for discussing the matter further in a meeting. In this respect I understand that

H.E Mr. Daud Mohamed Omar, Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Resources of Somalia, will be in

Rome on October 14th for the MinisteriaConference "Italy-Africa, working together for a
sustainable energy future" and I could meet him at that time.

Geology and geomorphology of the East Africa continental margin

1 Introduction

I am the Managing Director of a technical maritime consultancy (Maritime
Zone Solutions Ltd.) based in Romsey, Hampshire, UK. I started the company

in May 2010 when I left the UK National Oceanography Centre (NOC),

Southampton, where I had worked for the previous 15 years as Head of the

Law of the Sea Group in the Marine Geology and Geophysics Department.

Among other areas, the Group was responsible for UK maritime delineation
with respect to the continental shelf beyond 200 nautical miles. Prior to my

position at NOC, I was Principal Scientific Officer at the Institute of

Oceanographic Sciences (IOS), Wormley in Surrey, where I carried out two

parallel marine research programmes; one investigating geological processes
at continental margins and active plate boundaries, and the other the

technical implementation of United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea

(UNCLOS) provisions. From 1980 onwards, when I joined IOS, I was involved

in providing advice to the Department of Energy and the UK Foreign and

Commonwealth Office. I have authored more than 100 peer-reviewed articles
in scientific literature and more recently a number of commentaries on the

technical-legal interface and implementation of UNCLOS.

In 2003 I was asked by the UK Foreign and Commonwealth Office to assist

with the preparation of the four UK submissions to the Commission on the
Limits of the Continental Shelf in accordance with Article 76 of UNCLOS.

These were completed and submitted by 2009 and two have been defended

in front of the Commission. I remain the Lead Technical Advisor to the Legal

Advisors Office on delimitation issues on the continental shelf. Over my 35-
year career, both the Law of the Sea Group and Maritime Zone Solutions Ltd.

have been commissioned by many non-UK coastal states to assist them with

their submissions. I developed a training programme for international experts

to learn about UNCLOS Article 76, which ran between 2000 and 2006, and

since then I have managed and lectured at the graduate and post-graduate
level on the Law of the Sea modules offered in the ʻMarine Science Policy and

Lawʼ Masters degree programme at the University of Southampton. I have

supervised seven PhD students and acted as a national and international
