Activities

Main EU Legislative Proposals: The Platform is advocating for European legislation to regulate the ship recycling practices of European ship owners, and effectively contributed to the development of the EU Ship Recycling Regulation (EU SRR) which was adopted in December 2013. Currently, the Platform focuses on the implementation of the EU SRR including the set-up of the EU list of compliant ship recycling facilities and the adoption of a financial incentive to strengthen enforcement. The Regulation is now under review. The Platform additionally monitors the enforcement of the EU Waste Shipment Regulation (EU WSR) for end-of-life ships and the development of EU maritime policies.
Communication Activities: The Platform publishes "Platform News" and "Breaking News" on legislative and policy developments as well as the practices of European shipping companies. The "South Asia Quarterly Update" informs specifically about European ship owners' that sell their vessels for dirty and dangerous scrapping on tidal beaches, as well as reports on best practice and on specific issues related to the environmental and working conditions at shipbreaking yards used by EU-based companies. The Platform also organises events and debates with European policy makers and industry stakeholders on the implementation of the EU Ship Recycling Regulation and how to align EU ship recycling policies with the Circular Economy Action Plan.
