A new analysis from the international shipping organisations points to a significant need to strengthen global rules on ship recycling in light of the fact that many more ageing ships will have to be recycled in the coming years. Danish Shipping believes that global rules should be brought up to the level of the EU standard, so that there are more recycling facilities worldwide where ships can be recycled safely and in an environmentally sound manner.
The Council of the European Union has endorsed the Industrial Maritime Strategy and the EU Ports Strategy. Danish Shipping is pleased that the Council - as well as the Commission - has chosen investments and competition over protectionism.
