Conclusion
The size of a ship register is a measure of the success of a flag state and a way to exert influence on standards and welfare across an international sector. We welcome the Government’s recognition that if the UK wishes to maintain its status, serious efforts must be made to grow the UK Ship Register. Establishment of the UK Shipping Concierge Service and simplification of tonnage tax are two positive steps to achieving this.
