"The advent of the era of globalisation, with the removal of borders and the increased mobility of individuals, means that workers of various nationalities are increasingly working for the same company or contractor, as is the case with workers performing duties on the same ship. Rules on the training and certification of seafarers (International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers or STCW Convention) entered into force in 1984 and were significantly amended in 1995. They require a minimum level of training for this category of workers. Directive 2008/106/EC is the existing European Union law right now, having been adopted in November 2008 under the codecision procedure. A series of significant amendments agreed at the Conference of Parties to the STCW Convention in Manila in 2010 entered into force on 1 January 2012. Given that the objective of the Commission proposal is to transpose the amendments agreed at the Conference of Parties to the STCW Convention in 2010 into EU law, I voted in favour of this report on the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Directive 2008/106/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council on the minimum level of training of seafarers."@en1
