The European Marine Equipment Council (EMEC), which represents some 1,250 companies across Europe, has welcomed the Draft EP TRAN Committee Report''s amendments to the European Commission''s Draft Classification Societies'' Directive.

The amendments proposed would secure the progressive harmonisation of class rules and regulations, meaning that all marine equipment produced in Europe or installed on a ship classified by European recognised organisations will be based in future on equivalent high standards.
