The implementation and enforcement of international maritime security instruments is pivotal to the suppression of piracy. Member states of the International Maritime Organisation are therefore expected to fulfill their treaty obligations in relation to securing the shipping industry. The International Maritime Organisation lacks the power to implement and enforce these security instruments which makes it difficult to monitor member states’ implementation of their treaty obligations. As a consequence, the regime of Voluntary IMO Member State Audit Scheme allows member states to voluntarily access their performance regarding the implementation and enforcement of mandatory International Maritime Organisation conventions and other related instruments, through a third party. The implementation of maritime security instruments is an integral part of the multifaceted approach towards suppressing global piracy. Considering the nature of piracy in Nigeria, this paper argues that the use of Voluntary IMO Member State Audit Scheme complements the fight against piracy in the country.
Abstract
The implementation and enforcement of international maritime security instruments is pivotal to the suppression of piracy. Member states of the International Maritime Organisation are therefore expected to fulfill their treaty obligations in relation to securing the shipping industry. The International Maritime Organisation lacks the power to implement and enforce these security instruments which makes it difficult to monitor member states’ implementation of their treaty obligations. As a consequence, the regime of Voluntary IMO Member State Audit Scheme allows member states to voluntarily access their performance regarding the implementation and enforcement of mandatory International Maritime Organisation conventions and other related instruments, through a third party. The implementation of maritime security instruments is an integral part of the multifaceted approach towards suppressing global piracy. Considering the nature of piracy in Nigeria, this paper argues that the use of Voluntary IMO Member State Audit Scheme complements the fight against piracy in the country.
