(2) At the same time, seal hunting is an integral part of the culture and identity of the Inuit and other indigenous communities and makes a major contribution to their subsistence, including their right to development and to pursue economic activities. For those reasons, seal hunts traditionally conducted by Inuit and other indigenous communities, which are considered sustainable and do not harm the health of seal population, do not raise the same public moral concerns as the hunts conducted primarily for commercial purposes. Moreover, it is broadly recognised that the fundamental economic and social interests of Inuit and other indigenous communities should not be adversely affected, in accordance with United Nations Declaration on the rights of Indigenous Peoples and other relevant international instruments. Furthermore the 169 Indigenous and Tribal Peoples Convention, adopted by the International Labour Organisation in 1989, emphasises the indigenous peoples' right to self- determination, and thereby the right to freely pursue their economic, social and cultural development. For those reasons, by way of exception, Regulation (EC) No 1007/2009 allows the placing on the market of seal products which result from hunts traditionally conducted by Inuit and other indigenous communities and which contribute to their subsistence.
