European List of ship recycling facilities

Sažetak
In November 2013, the European Parliament and of the Council adopted the Regulation (EU) No 1257/2013 on ship recycling. According to the article 6(2) of the Regulation (EU)No 1257/2013, ship owners shall ensure that ships flying the flag of the EU, destined to be recycled, are only recycled at ship recycling facilities that are included in the European List of authorized ship recycling facilities.In this paper the author analyzes some of the factors of the controversial unilateral norms of the European List of ship recycling facilities with emphasis on the purpose of this Regulation - to direct ships flying the flag of the EU to ship recycling facilities that practice safe and environmentally sound methods of dismantling ships.This paper elaborates on requirements necessary for ship recycling facilities to be included in the European List especially on authorization of ship recycling facilities located in the EU and application for inclusion of ship recycling facilities located in third countries. Althought the EU ship recycling facilities meet high standards of occupational safety and environmental protection and the majority of coastal recycling facilities in South Asia work with minimal environmental and safety standards - all ship recycling facilities (in the EU or in third countries)which do not meet those minimum requirements should not be included in the European List. The purpose of the paper is to point to on the insufficient clean capacity and environmental standards in ship recycling facilities and problems in complying with the requirements set out in the European List of ship recycling facilities under Regulation (EU9 No 1257/2013 particularly to the decreasing number of ships registered under EU flag (re-flagging the ship to a non-EU flag).
