Marine Committee
The LMA Marine Committee is the senior marine committee, normally comprising ten elected members plus the senior Lloyd’s representative from each of the Joint Committees. It meets every other month.
If there is an issue you wish to raise at this committee or any of the Joint Committees, please contact either a member of the committee or the secretary.
Important Issues
Members' attention is drawn to the US Advisory in the links section. This was produced after months of liaison with industry and is non-mandatory. It is for individual underwriting entities to review and decide how to best demonstrate appropriate due diligence. During the liaison, it was explained that sanctions breaches render insurance cover inoperable, AIS tracking is not in itself capable of preventing transgressions and that insurers do not have constabulary powers, so it is hoped that Flag States will demonstrate leadership as Panama and Pulau have done. The UK Government have also produced guidance for the maritime industry through OFSI.
