The Maritime and Coastguard Agency's Response to Growth in the UK Merchant Fleet
This report focuses on how the Maritime and Coastguard Agency has responded to growth in the UK registered merchant shipping fleet. The Agency is responsible for maintaining the safety, security and environmental standards of commercial vessels flying the UK flag. In 2000, the Government introduced tonnage tax as part of package of measures designed to reverse the long-term decline in the UK registered merchant shipping fleet. Tonnage tax allows a company operating a vessel controlled from the UK to opt to pay tax on the basis of its tonnage rather than the profit on the vessel's trading activities. Since then the number of merchant vessels joining the UK Ship Register has increased from 1,0...

Coast Guards and International Maritime Law Enforcement
This book explores various aspects of the roles and responsibilities of coast guards, which are increasingly becoming significant today, and sheds light on their authority and limitations in the course of maritime law enforcement. It is unique in its unraveling of all facets of coast guards, focusing on their law enforcement authority and limitations from a practical perspective. It details the principles and procedures that coast guard officers are required to follow in the course of international law at sea by examining treaties, conventions, international rulings, and theories. The text employs a comparative study of national coast guards and a review of cases concerning international maritime law enforcement. It provides practical insights into coast guards and their law enforcement, based on the author’s career experience and service as a Commissioner General in the Korea Coast Guard. As such, this book will serve as a good reference in practice and contribute to the formulation of guidelines and criteria of maritime law enforcement of coast guards.
Wellbeing at Sea
Seafaring is a very demanding profession. Being far away from family and friends, being unable to leave the workplace and having fewer choices during non-working hours can affect physical, mental and emotional health. For seafarers, whilst on board, the ship is not only a place of work but also a home. Wellbeing means a state of good health and fulfilment. It is not just the absence of illness, but also about achieving a positive mental state to thrive and be fulfilled at work. This practical guide will offer guidance for seafarers on fitness and diet, general health, personal and social wellbeing, mental health issues, and relationships and communication. With an extensive appendix there is practical guidance to help seafarers with everyday life. Easy to read and full of illustrations, this pocket book will be an essential resource to offer support to seafarers to promote a state of healthy wellbeing at sea.
Marine fuel sulphur record book
Essential for all vessels who wish to enter an Emission Control Area, are at berth in a United Kingdom port, or a UK passenger ship operating in UK waters and controlled waters or any other passenger ship which calls at a port in the UK. The Merchant Shipping (prevention of Air Pollution from Ships) Regulation 2008, as amended, require that the master of a ship to which the regulations apply make a record to demonstrate compliance for any ship using separate fuel oils and make a record of any fuel changeover operation. The master of a ship to which the regulations apply is required to make a record: (a) in the case of a UK ship, in a log book in the format prescribed in Appendix 6 to Merchant Shipping Notice 1819 (M+F); (b) in the case of any other ship, in a ship's log book. This log book has been approved by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency for use on United Kingdom ships when recording the use of maritime fuel oil in accordance with the requirements of Annex VI of MARPOL and for ships at berth in United Kingdom ports in accordance with EU Directive 199/32/EC, as amended by Directive 2005/33/EC regarding the sulphur content of marine fuels.
Grey and White Hulls
This book undertakes an in-depth examination of the diversity in international approaches to the navy-coastguard nexus. It considers the evolving global maritime security landscape and the emergence and proliferation of maritime law enforcement agencies—collectively referred to here as “coastguards”—performing peacetime constabulary duties alongside navies. Through a cross-regional study of various countries worldwide, including those in Asia and Europe, this book reveals that there is no one optimal, “one size fits all” organizational structure. Instead, there is a wide array of drivers that influence a nation-state’s maritime security architecture and its organizational approach to managing security at sea, or broadly speaking, securing its national maritime interests.
Wellbeing at Sea
Seafarers play a key role in the success of the maritime industries, yet their welfare can be neglected. Seafarers are employed in a unique workplace, featuring prolonged social isolation, fatigue and with limited services. The suicide rate for seafarers is higher than in the general population and there is a financial cost for ship owners. These publications will fill an important gap in the current portfolio. The aim of the title is to provide practical guidance for optimal care of seafarers, ultimately improving seafarer wellbeing and, in turn, business efficiency onboard vessels.
