Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) has announced that the International Maritime Organisation's (IMO) Maritime Safety Committee has incorporated a number of recommendations from the on-going Cruise Industry Operational Safety Review at its meetings in London, held from May 16 to 25.
The committee focused extensively on passenger ship safety and considered a number of recommendations developed by the review, launched on behalf of the global cruise industry in January, along with other safety recommendations submitted by IMO member governments.
At the meeting, the IMO put forth immediate actions to enhance passenger ship safety, with the review the source of many of the items. The review includes a comprehensive assessment of the critical human factors and operational aspects of maritime safety and the development of comprehensive best practices for industry-wide implementation.
