As I have mentioned before, nations such as Australia and New Zealand clearly don't agree with the International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling, and their failure to accordingly withdraw from the Convention shows that they have no honour - they are a joke internationally, and rightfully viewed as hypocrites because of this. It's time for these nations to put their words into action, and prove that they truely do disagree with whaling by withdrawing.

Dan Goodman also suggests this.

So too, it seems does Takanori Nagatomo:
"Some extreme anti-whaling countries like Australia have clearly mentioned that even one whale should not be killed. In that case, their attitude is totally contradicting the ... international convention for the [regulation] of whaling. So it is such extreme anti-countries that should withdraw (from the) IWC."

If you can stand the horrible Australian accent, you can listen to the full interview.
