Christine Duffy – President and CEO of CLIA.

Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA) announced last week that the IMO’s Maritime Safety Committee incorporated a number of recommendations from the ongoing Cruise Industry Operational Safety Review in its meeting held last week. The committee focused extensive attention on passenger ship safety and considered a number of recommendations developed by the review, launched on behalf of the global cruise industry in January along with other safety recommendations submitted by the IMO member governments.

At the meeting, the IMO put forth immediate actions to enhance passenger ship safety, with the review the source of many of the items. The review includes a comprehensive assessment of the critical human factors and operational aspects of maritime safety and the development of comprehensive best practices for industry-wide implementation.

“CLIA commends the IMO, its Secretary-General, the Maritime Safety Committee and the 170 IMO member States around the world for their ongoing commitment to working with the industry to improve the safety of passengers and crew, which is the number one priority of CLIA members,” said Christine Duffy, president and CEO of CLIA. “We look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with the IMO and a wide range of stakeholders to undertake further continuous consideration, development and implementation of measures to strengthen our industry’s safety culture”.
