    2024年3月18日至22日,国际海事组织(IMO)海上环境保护委员会第81次会议(MEPC81)在英国伦敦IMO总部召开。以下为会议对有关《2009香港国际安全及无害环境拆船公约》(《香港公约》)实施情况议题讨论情况的简报(译文)。






     MEPC批准在GISIS(译者注:全球综合航运信息系统)中新增一个模块,提供电子报告渠道,以协助实施将于2025年6月26日生效的《香港公约》。该公约旨在确保船舶在其使用寿命结束后进行回收时,不会对人类健康、安全和环境构成任何不必要的风险。

    《香港公约》第12条要求各缔约国向IMO报告以下信息:拆船设施(厂)、主管机关、已签发国际备拆证书的船舶清单以及本国管辖范围内拆解的船舶清单。

MEPC讨论了《香港公约》与《巴塞尔公约》内容中可能存在的冲突。MEPC请秘书处继续加强与《巴塞尔公约》秘书处的合作,以确保获得足够的信息来保障《香港公约》得以顺利实施,并向《巴塞尔公约》缔约方会议报告了本次会议的成果。MEPC请有关成员国也关注《巴塞尔公约》的相关会议,并将关于两公约在内容冲突问题上的进一步建议向MEPC82递交了提案。秘书处与《巴塞尔公约》秘书处将共同协商,就这一事项制定相关指南。



【IMO官方网站原文】Implementation of the Hong Kong Convention 

MEPC approved reporting formats and the future development of a GISIS module, to provide electronic reporting facilities, to assist with implementation of the Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships (Hong Kong Convention), which is set to enter into force on 26 June 2025.   

The Convention is aimed at ensuring that ships, when being recycled after reaching the end of their operational life, do not pose any unnecessary risks to human health, safety and to the environment.

Article 12 of the Hong Kong Convention requires each Party to report to the Organization information on, inter alia, ship recycling facilities, competent authorities, an annual list of ships flying the flag of that Party to which an International Ready for Recycling Certificate has been issued, and an annual list of ships recycled within the jurisdiction of that Party. 

        MEPC discussed a potential overlap in requirements between the Hong Kong Convention and the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and their Disposal. MEPC requested the Secretariat to continue and strengthen the cooperation with the Secretariat of the Basel Convention to cater for any information and assistance needed to ensure clear and robust implementation of the Hong Kong Convention; and to report the outcome of MEPC 81 to the COP to the Basel Convention. MEPC invited interested Member States to bring the issue to the attention of relevant meetings under the Basel Convention and to submit further proposals to MEPC 82 on the interplay between the Hong Kong and Basel Conventions regarding ship recycling. The IMO Secretariat was requested to develop draft guidance on this matter, in consultation with the Basel Convention Secretariat.
