WSC response to call for feedback on review and proposed revision of Port State Control Directive (2009/16/EC)

WSC supports the Maritime Safety Package, and we focus our comments here on the PSC Directive. WSC recognises that Port State Control (PSC) is an important aspect of ensuring maritime safety. We also support the review and potential updating of the Ship Risk Profile (SRP) Calculator as currently implemented in The Hybrid European Targeting and Inspection System (THETIS) managed by EMSA. Our main requirement is that new parameters in a Ship Risk Profile (SRP) provide PSC Officers with improved tools for prioritizing inspections to reduce safety and environmental incidents, to protect seafarers and communities, and to improve environmental performance.
