Twinning project "Enhancement of administrative capacity in maritime safety" presented

The PHARE 2005 twinning project  "Enhancement of administrative capacity in maritime safety" was presented at the Croatian Ministry of the Sea, Transport and Infrastructure in Zagreb on Tuesday.

The EUR 600,000 programme was launched in January and will take 16 months to complete. The twinning partners are the Finnish Maritime Administration and the Italian Coast Guard.

The aim of the project is to set up a maritime traffic monitoring and management service with a suitable information system in accordance with recommendations of the International Maritime Organisation and EU directives on implementation of the Vessel Traffic Management Information System (VTMIS).

After the completion of the project, the Croatian part of the Adriatic Sea will be covered by the VTMIS system that monitors every vessel, its position and course, time of arrival, and cargo and crew data. (Hina)
