Sažetak
The place of refuge is one of the latest acts in a long process of creation of international rules for the protection of the marine environment. In November 2003, the IMO Assembly adopted two resolutions addressing the issue of places of refuge for ships in distress. Resolution A.949 (23) Guidelines on places of refuge for ships in need of assistance, is intended for use when a ship is in need of assistance but the safety of life is not involved. The guidelines recognize that, when a ship has suffered an incident, the best way of preventing damage or pollution from its progressive deterioration is to transfer its cargo and bunkers, and to repair the causality. Such an operation is best carried out in place of refuge. A second resolution, A.950 (23) Maritime Assistance services (MAS), recommends that all coastal States should establish a maritime assistance service (MAS). By adoption of the Maritime Code in 2004, the Republic of Croatia pledged to determine the places of refuge by the end of 2007.
