This report forms part of the Third Maritime Safety Package, which is broadly aimed at preventing accidents and at combating the consequences of those accidents.
Member States are required to ensure that ships on their national registers conform to international standards. Any initiative taken at EU level to promote maritime accident prevention and combat should not undermine this obligation.
On the basis of this premise, we broadly agree with the measures proposed. For example, Member States must check compliance with international rules and standards when registering ships in their register by means of documentary evidence; they must draw up and implement a monitoring and inspection programme for ships under its flag; and they must ensure the training and oversight of surveyors and investigators.
The Community must, however, contribute to the financial resources needed to carry out and enforce these measures, something that is not made clear in this proposal.
With the recent
and
accidents still fresh in the memory, we feel that the proposals put forward in this area must be subject to major debate, in which workers in the sector and the public as a whole are involved."@en1
