Prince Albert II names 11 to Council of the Sea
By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
Prince Albert II has appointed 11 members to the Council of the Sea under Sovereign Ordinance No. 12.208, published on 30 October.
Prince Albert II has signed off on 11 appointments to Monaco's Council of the Sea, the body tasked with advising the government on legislation and policy affecting the Principality's marine environment. The appointments were confirmed through Sovereign Ordinance No. 12.208, published in the Journal de Monaco on Friday 30 October.
The council brings together senior government officials alongside maritime specialists, reflecting the mix of administrative oversight and technical expertise that shapes decisions on everything from coastal development to marine conservation. For a Principality whose waterfront, from Port Hercule to the Larvotto seafront, remains central to both its identity and its economy, the body carries real weight when it comes to shaping future policy.
While the full list of appointees has not been detailed publicly beyond the ordinance itself, the reconstitution of the council signals continued attention from the Palace on marine and environmental matters, an area Prince Albert II has long positioned as a personal priority through his foundation's wider environmental work.
