  4. The four Major Pillars of Maritime Regulations

  5. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has provided the adoption of some 50 Conventions and Protocols to the Conventions and adopted more than 1000 Codes and Resolutionsns concerning maritime safety and security, the prevention of pollution and related matter.

  6. IMO Operational requirements put together are manhigh

  7. Is this what we want? What are the implications for the single shipmaster and for IFSMA ?

  8. Freedom of the seasStatement by IMO Sec. Gen. William O´Neill 1995 • For hundreds of years the shipping nations have jealously guarded one basic concept – the Freedom of the Seas. The seas belong to everyone and no one country or group of countries has the right to prevent anyone else from using them. This is a concept which so far has served us well. But the time has come for certain aspects to be re-examined

  9. Freedom of the seas • Should the Certificates and Licences issued by Governments still be accepted (by port states) without questions – when evidence indicates that some of them are virtually worthless. • Should third-rate shipowners be allowed the inalienable right to send substandard ships to sea – rustbuckets – which threaten the lives and property of others and which threaten to spill pollution over any coastline which they happen to pass
