Mission & Goals
EISAP’s objective is to represent the interests of Portuguese and international shipowners with ships registered in MAR (Int. Madeira Ship Register). Its aim is to contribute to the promotion, development and harmonization of MAR in close collaboration with the International Business Centre of Madeira, with the Madeira Regional Government and with other relevant stakeholders. It further aims to contribute to strengthening Portugal’s maritime sector by supporting the creation of jobs for young Portuguese and European students in the maritime industry, onboard ship and ashore.
EU Legislative Interests
Community Guidelines on State Aid to Maritime Transport. We support the idea of really implementing the objectives of the guidelines, in particular the need to sail under an EU flag. So far only 50% of the EU owned fleet sails under a member state flag. Also: - EU Fit For 55 package (maritime transport) - Technical maritime transport initiatives (maritime safety package etc.) - SRR - European Maritime Industry Strategy
Communication Activities
We are not particularly interested in changing the current EU legislation but enforcing the existing rules, regulations and guidelines. We recommend the EU to take its own policy with regard to encouraging European shipowners in using member state flags more seriously.
Interests Represented
