message: From the text:
This fleet is maintained as a subset of the French register that allows French-owned ships to operate under more liberal taxation and manning regulations than permissible under the main French register. This register, however, is now becoming largely extinct.
In the  2005 UNCTAD Review of Maritime Transport (p.37) this register is still listed as one of eight large international registers. It has about 5.4 million deadweighttons registered, up from 5 mill in 2004 and 4.7 mill in 2003. 
I'm not going to mock about with the text, as the author may have further information on the subject.

message: Is there any international institution, or english speaking state which is used to calling the french islands of the southern Indian Ocean "French Southern Territories" to make the difference between them and "Terre Adélie" ? Who ? When ? I don't think of british or australian institutions because of their own claims (see Australian Antarctic Territory and British Antarctic Territory). I'd rather think it's just a practical calling, or a journalistic point of wiew, not an official designation. The word internationally is confusing.Channer 06:26, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  French Southern Territories : "international calling" ?  

message: It'd be worth pointing out in this article, IMO, which portions of the territory are in actual fact administered by France, versus being part of the territory but not de facto under its control. My understanding is that, of the five districts, Adélie Land is not de facto controlled by France (as the claim is suspended under the Antarctic Treaty), but that the other four are. I'm not entirely sure, though. --Delirium (talk) 02:07, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is exactly so. The district Adélie Land is the only one of the territory that lies south of 60°S and therefore falls under the Antarctic Treaty.--Ratzer (talk) 18:13, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

message: "According to new law 2007-224 of February 21, 2007, the Scattered Islands constitute the TAAF's fifth district. The TAAF website does not mention their population. The data are not included in the totals."
I don't know what "totals" is supposed to mean here, but in the table which is above the comment, the population is included in the totals. 193.210.204.125 (talk) 09:40, 7 February 2023 (UTC)
