Administering the code of conduct

S. G. Sturmey

Marine Policy, 1984, vol. 8, issue 3, 203-216

Abstract: The author examines problems which liner conferences are likely to encounter in administering and policing the UN Code of Conduct for liner conferences which entered into force on 6 October 1983. Following an introduction dealing with the nature and structure of the Code itself and the problems which these pose for its interpretation and administration, the author discusses the responsibility for administration in relation to Code provisions, and then turns to the controversial questions of the administration of the cargo sharing system. Further sections deal with policing the Code and the nature of the remedies available in the case of disputes which cannot be settled within the conference system of self-policing. The final sections deal with the question of the role of governments, appropriate authorities and the EEC.
