InterManager IMO Updates

Practitioners of ship management face an increasingly difficult challenge of having to cope with managing information flowing from an expanding regulatory agenda. In this section InterManager provides several value-adding info streams:

  • IMO circulars
  • Meeting Reports
  • Request for comments
  • Members contributions

Our high level view of what’s on happening on the regulatory radar screen will hopefully alert members to the new initiatives to watch out for and point you in the right direction if you need to find out more.

We are also keen to share information on how members are coping with new regulatory demands at the ‘coalface’ so to speak. We invite members and other interested parties to comment and contribute to this section of the InterManager website!

Outcomes of Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) Meeting 60th session: 22-26 March, 2010

At this meeting the MEPC found difficulty in making tangible progress on the issue of reduction in Greenhouse Gases due to the legacy of COP15 and the continuing divide between the developed and developing world which caused tension from time to time in the plenary sessions. Despite this, it was important for InterManager to be one of the many NGOs present in an almost unprecedented packed auditorium in order to keep a close eye on the technical, operational and commercial ramifications of the discussions taking place.

For this meeting 159 papers were tabled for consideration of which 100 referenced Green House Gases (GHG).

This report summaries outcomes.
