In 1961 the Institutes of Navigation in Great Britain and France, with the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Ortung und Navigation, formed a representative Working Group to go into the question of regulating traffic in converging areas at sea with particular reference to the Dover Strait. The Group's Report, which was published in October 1962, made certain proposals for routing traffic in the area which were accepted, in April 1964, by the Maritime Safety Committee of the Inter-Governmental Maritime Consultative Organization.

This report was first published in the Journal in 1966 (Vol. 19, p. 411). In its reprinted form it has been abridged by omitting detailed recommendations for the establishment of separation areas and recommended routes in the Baltic, the North Sea, the Dover Strait, and the English Channel to Gibraltar. These recommendations were included in the original section 7. The report is followed by comments from Norman Cockcroft.In 1961 the Institutes of Navigation in Great Britain and France, with the Deutsche Gesellschaft fur Ortung und Navigation, formed a representative Working Group to go into the question of regulating traffic in converging areas at sea with particular reference to the Dover Strait.

The Intergovernmental Maritime Consultative Organization (IMCO) through the Subcommittee on Tonnage Measurement of its Maritime Safety Committee in 1959 undertook to determine if it could develop a universal system for the tonnage measurement of ships. It considered the matter for nine years in nine sessions of the Subcommittee and seven sessions of the Working Group of the Subcommittee. Most of the sessions dealt, almost exclusively with the problem of a universal system. In 1968 after the Subcommittee had completed its work the IMCO Secretariat distributed to governments three basic proposals, including draft Articles, Regulations, and a Tonnage Certificate in each case, which the Subcommittee had prepared for a universal system of tonnage measurement of ships. There was also distributed a modified version of one of the proposals suggested by Denmark. Governments were requested to consider the proposals as possible basic documents for an International Conference on Tonnage Measurement to be convened in London for a four-week period commencing May 27, 1969.

Set Up

The Maritime Safety Committee of the Inter-Governmental Maritime Consultative Organization considered the Report of the Dover Strait Working Group set up by the British, French and German Institutes of Navigation, at its session which ended on 25 January. Members of the Safety Committee were, in general, in agreement with the recommendations of the Group that a system of routing should be established and that the navigational marks and other aids in the Strait should be improved. The Committee considered, however, that the report required further study by governments before definite views could be formed; account would also have to be taken of the result of the enquiry now being addressed to masters of ships by the International Chamber of Shipping through its members.

AbstractIMO has, as an integral part of its mandate, the duty to make travel and transport by sea as safe as possible. In the wake of the tragic events of 11 September 2001 in the United States of America, the 22nd Session of the Assembly of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), which met at the Organization's London headquarters in November 2001, adopted Resolution A.924(22) on the "Review of Measures and Procedures to Prevent Acts of Terrorism which Threaten the Security of Passengers and Crews and the Safety of Ships". Since then a number of meetings of the Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) and its Working Group on maritime security were held and new maritime security regulations were developed. These mandatory provisions are detailed in the new Chapter XI-2 of the SOLAS Convention and the new International Ship and Port Facility Security (ISPS) Code, which was subsequently adopted by a Diplomatic Conference on Maritime Security, held at the IMO headquarters in London from 9-13 December 2002, for formal entry into force on 1 July 2004 (if deemed accepted on 1 January 2004). In addition, a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) has been signed between the World Customs Organization (WCO) and the IMO in July 2001 to ensure closer co-operation. In addition to the work that the International Labour Organization (ILO) is undertaking regarding the development of a new seafarers' Identity Document, further co-operation is also anticipated in a Joint ILO/IMO Working Group to develop a comprehensive regulatory framework for the security of all port areas.

To Come

1. INTRODUCTION. At the 30th Session of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) Sub-committee on Safety of Navigation, held in July 1985, agreement was reached on some further amendments to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, including some amendments to the rule relating to navigation in or near traffic-separation schemes (Rule 10). These amendments will subsequently have to be approved by the Maritime Safety Committee and finally, in November 1987, by the IMO Assembly. Provided there are no objections to the proposals the amendments are likely to come into force in 1989.
