Legislative competence of International Maritime Organization
Abstract
International Maritime Organization (IMO) is equipped with considerable
legislative competence consisting in passing recommendations and international
conventions. Conventions become binding after their ratification, and recommendations
— after their implementation. In the case of Poland, when out of 635
decrees of IMO we are bound only by 4, with 1 of them in an outdated version,
a solution might be to leave the question of ratification of international codes,
codes, indications and handbooks to the Minister of Transport, Navigation and
Communication, while the ratification of other decrees might be left to the director
of Polish Register of Ships, to directors of Maritime Offices or to directors of
sea-ports or other maritime enterprises. A problem in Poland is how to acquaint
all interested persons with the contents of those decrees. According to the requirements
of the legislative technique, ordinances of the Minister of Transport
would have to be published in one of the promulgation organs (Dziennik Ustaw,
Monitor Polski, Dziennik Urzędowy). Because of the great number of decrees which,
in order to create safe conditions of navigation, should be ratified, it seems necessary
to use the method of publishing a comprehensive index of decrees, indicating the institution which collects the texts. In all other cases it seems possible to
publish and collect the texts in the IMO Centre at the Polish Register of Ships
in Gdańsk.
IMO conventions do not guarantee a full uniformization of maritime law on
a world scale. Summing up, one may say that the conventions are not self-
-executing agreements and that with respect to ratifying annexes a principle of
individual opting-out has not been adopted. For these reasons IMO international
maritime law cannot be identified with domestic maritime law. In order to
distinguish the former from the latter the term „international maritime legislation"
should be used.
