| Abstract |
The International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code), adopted in December 2002, seeks to: establish an international framework for co-operation between governments and government agencies, local authorities and shipping and port industries to detect and assess security threats and take preventive measures against security incidents affecting ships or port facilities used in international trade; to establish relevant roles and responsibilities at the national and international level for ensuring maritime safety; and to enable efficient collation and exchange of security-related information. These objectives are to be achieved by the designation of appropriate personnel on each ship, in each port facility and in each shipping company to prepare assessments and effect security plans. This publication includes the ISPS Code, relevant amendments to the SOLAS (International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea) Convention and other resolutions. |
