P7_TA(2013)0182A7-0132/2013

Amendments adopted by the European Parliament on 18 April 2013 on the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on ship recycling (COM(2012)0118 – C7-0082/2012 – 2012/0055(COD))(1)

(Ordinary legislative procedure: first reading)

Text proposed by the Commission   Amendment
Amendment 1
Proposal for a regulation
Title
REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
on ship recycling
on the environmentally sound recycling and treatment of ships and amending Directive 2009/16/EC and Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006
Amendment 2
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 1 a (new)
(1a)  The predominant method of dismantling ships through the so-called ‘beaching’ method does not and cannot represent safe and sound recycling and should therefore no longer be tolerated.
Amendment 3
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 3
(3)  Current ship recycling capacity in OECD countries which is legally accessible to ships flying the flag of a Member State is insufficient. Safe and sound recycling capacity which already exists in countries which are not members of the OECD is sufficient to treat all EU-flagged ships and is expected to expand further by 2015 as the results of actions taken by recycling countries to meet the requirements of the Hong Kong Convention.
(3)  Current ship recycling capacity in OECD countries, which is legally accessible to ships that constitute hazardous waste for export, is not sufficiently exploited. There is a controversy about the accessibility and capacity of ship recycling facilities in the United States. Irrespective of the situation in the United States in that regard, there is significant potential capacity in certain Member States and OECD countries, which could nearly suffice for recycling and treating ships flying the flag of a Member State (EU ships), if it was fully mobilised. Together with existing and potential safe and sound recycling capacity in countries which are not members of the OECD, there should be sufficient capacity to treat all EU ships.
Amendment 4
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 3 a (new)
(3a)  The current situation of ship recycling is characterised by an extreme externalisation of the costs. Ship recycling facilities with little or inexistent standards for the protection of workers, human health and the environment offer the highest price for waste ships. As a result, the large majority of the global ship fleet sent for recycling is taken apart on the beaches of certain countries under humanly degrading and environmentally destructive conditions that are unacceptable. It is appropriate to create a financial mechanism, applicable to all ships calling at Union ports irrespective of the flag they are flying, to counterbalance this situation by contributing to render environmentally sound recycling and treatment of ships which constitute hazardous waste competitive vis-à-vis substandard operations.
Amendment 5
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 3 b (new)
(3b)  In view of the "polluter pays" principle, the costs of environmentally sound recycling and treatment of ships should be covered by ships owners. In the interest of protecting human health and the environment, a financial mechanism should be established to generate resources that would contribute to making environmentally sound recycling and treatment of both EU ships and non-EU ships in EU listed facilities economically competitive. All ships calling at Union ports and anchorages should contribute to the costs of environmentally sound recycling and treatment of ships so as to counterbalance the economic incentive to go to substandard operations, and to provide a disincentive to out-flagging. Ships that deposit a financial guarantee as a guarantee that they will go to EU listed facilities for recycling and treatment should be exempted from the recycling levy. The recycling levy as well as the financial guarantee should be fair, non-discriminatory and transparent.
Amendment 6
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 4
(4)  The Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships (‘the Hong Kong Convention’) was adopted on 15 May 2009 under the auspices of the International Maritime Organization at the request of the Parties to the Basel Convention. The Hong Kong Convention will only enter into force 24 months after the date of ratification by at least 15 States representing a combined merchant fleet of at less 40 per cent of the gross tonnage of the world's merchant shipping and whose combined maximum annual ship recycling volume during the preceding 10 years constitutes not less than three per cent of the gross tonnage of the combined merchant shipping of the same States. The Member States should ratify the Convention at the earliest opportunity in order to hasten its entry into force. The Convention covers the design, construction, operation and preparation of ships so as to facilitate safe and environmentally sound recycling without compromising ship safety and operational efficiency; it also covers the operation of ship recycling facilities in a safe and environmentally sound manner, and the establishment of an appropriate enforcement mechanism for ship recycling.
(4)  The Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships (‘the Hong Kong Convention’) was adopted on 15 May 2009 under the auspices of the International Maritime Organization (IMO). The Hong Kong Convention will only enter into force 24 months after the date of ratification by at least 15 States representing a combined merchant fleet of at least 40 per cent of the gross tonnage of the world's merchant shipping and whose combined maximum annual ship recycling volume during the preceding 10 years constitutes not less than three per cent of the gross tonnage of the combined merchant shipping of the same States. The Convention covers the use of hazardous materials in ships so as to facilitate safe and environmentally sound recycling without compromising ship safety and operational efficiency; it also covers, through guidelines, the operation of ship recycling facilities, and includes an enforcement mechanism for ship recycling. The Hong Kong Convention does not apply to government-owned ships nor to vessels under 500 Gross Tonnes (GT), nor to vessels operating throughout their life only in waters subject to the sovereignty or jurisdiction of the State whose flag the ship is entitled to fly. The Hong Kong Convention also does not cover the actual recycling of the steel recovered at the ship recycling facility or the operations of facilities managing waste materials downstream of the initial ship recycling facility. The Hong Kong Convention does not seek to prevent the export of ships that constitute hazardous waste to non-OECD countries - a practice currently prohibited under Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006. It is expected that it will take up to a decade before the Hong Kong Convention enters into force.
Amendment 7
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 5
(5)  The Hong Kong Convention provides explicitly for its Parties to take more stringent measures consistent with international law, with respect to the safe and environmentally sound recycling of ships, in order to prevent, reduce or minimise any adverse effects on human health and the environment. The establishment of a European list of ship recycling facilities fulfilling the requirements set out in this Regulation would contribute to that objective as well as to better enforcement by facilitating the flag states´ control of ships going for recycling. Those requirements for ship recycling facilities should be based on the requirements of the Hong Kong Convention.
(5)  The Hong Kong Convention provides explicitly for its Parties to be able to take more stringent measures consistent with international law, with respect to the safe and environmentally sound recycling of ships, in order to prevent, reduce or minimise any adverse effects on human health and the environment. The establishment of a European list of ship recycling facilities fulfilling the requirements set out in this Regulation should contribute to that objective as well as to better enforcement by facilitating the flag states' control of ships going for recycling. Those requirements for ship recycling facilities should be based on the requirements of the Hong Kong Convention, but should go beyond them so as to achieve a level of protection of human health and the environment that is broadly equivalent to that of the Union. This should also contribute to increasing the competitiveness of the environmentally safe and sound recycling and treatment of ships in Union facilities.
Amendment 8
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 7
(7)  The ships not covered by the scopes of the Hong Kong Convention and this Regulation should continue to be recycled in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and of Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives respectively,
(7)  Ships not covered by the scope of the Hong Kong Convention, ships that are not able to travel by their own means, unless they have a valid contract for full repair, and ships that do not comply with the applicable provisions under Union and international law with regard to safety when they become waste in the territory under the jurisdiction of a Member State, should continue to be recycled in accordance with the requirements of Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and of Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives respectively.
Amendment 9
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8
(8)  It is necessary to clarify the respective scopes of this Regulation, Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and Directive 2008/98/EC in order to avoid the duplication of regulatory instruments that have the same objective.
(8)  It is necessary to clarify the scope respectively of this Regulation, Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 and Directive 2008/98/EC in order to avoid applying different legal requirements in the same situation.
Amendment 10
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 8 a (new)
(8a)  The application of this Regulation should respect the rights of transit countries under international law.
Amendment 11
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 9 a (new)
(9a)  Member States should arrange for a swift ratification of the Hong Kong Convention with the aim of improving ship recycling practices and conditions.
Amendment 12
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 11
(11)  Member States should lay down rules on penalties applicable to infringements of this Regulation and ensure that these penalties are applied so as to prevent circumvention of ship recycling rules. The penalties, which may be of a civil or administrative nature, should be effective, proportionate and dissuasive.
(11)  Member States should lay down rules on penalties applicable to infringements of this Regulation and ensure that these penalties are applied so as to prevent circumvention of ship recycling rules. The penalties, which may be of a criminal, civil or administrative nature, should be effective, proportionate and dissuasive.
Amendment 13
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 14
(14)  Since the objective to prevent, reduce or eliminate adverse effects on human health and the environment caused by the recycling, operation and maintenance of ships flying the flag of a Member State cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States due to the international character of shipping and ship recycling, and can therefore be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective,
(14)  Since the objective to prevent, reduce or eliminate adverse effects on human health and the environment caused by the recycling and treatment of EU ships cannot always be sufficiently achieved by the Member States alone due to the international character of shipping and ship recycling, and can therefore in some cases be better achieved at Union level although the ratification of Hong Kong Convention would transfer the Union competence for regulating ship recycling issues back to EU Member States, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective,
Amendment 14
Proposal for a regulation
Article 1
The purpose of this Regulation is to prevent, reduce or eliminate adverse effects on human health and the environment caused by the recycling, operation and maintenance of ships flying the flag of a Member State.
The purpose of this Regulation is to prevent, reduce to a minimum and, to the extent possible, eliminate accidents, injuries and other adverse effects on human health and the environment caused by the recycling and treatment of EU ships, inter alia by recycling them in EU listed facilities located in the Union or outside the Union, and to improve the conditions for the recycling of non-EU ships.
The purpose of this Regulation is also to reduce disparities between operators in the Union, in OECD countries and in relevant third countries in terms of health and safety at the work place and environmental standards.
This Regulation aims also at facilitating ratification of the Hong Kong Convention.
