(Serial publication; recently annual. Editions prior to 1966 were titled lnfernafional List of Selecfed and Supplementary Ships.) Task background: This is a follow-up to an earlier CDMP task that imaged and digitized WMO- No. 47 editions and supplements for 1955-72, which were previously available only in paper form. Starting with the 1973 edition, the ship metadata contained in the publication were made available digitally by WMO, but not images of the printed material-which this task accomplishes through 1998 (Table 1).

Distr. GENERAL E/CEPAL/G.1223 12 November 1982 ORIGINAL: ENGLISH
Distr. GENERAL E/CEPAL/G.1223 12 November 1982 ORIGINAL: ENGLISH C E P A L Economic Commission for Latin America CARGO UNITIZATION IN THE LIGHT OF INSTITUTIONAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ITS SUPPORT 82-10-2257 - iii - SUMMARY While many forms of cargo unitization and especially that of containers have been utilized in the trade flows of developed countries since the early 1960s, these systems began to be introduced in ever-growing numbers at the ports of Latin American and Caribbean countries during the latter part of the 1970s. As a result, large investments have been made by the public and private sectors of this region in appropriate vessels and cargo handling equipment to facilitate their transport as well as port loading and discharge operations. Nonetheless, for the benefits of cargo unitization to be fully realized, it should be understood that containers and other cargo grouping units must not be treated as merely another means of packing goods for carriage, but rather as an entirely new transport system. With a view to examining the institutional requirements of cargo unitization, chapter II of the present document analyses the evolution and impact of container and RO-RO transport systems and various activities which have been undertaken in this r>egion to expand the utilization of these systems by carriers, shippers, etc., while chapter III evaluates the need to create an appropriate institutional infrastructure for cargo unitization. In order to fully realize the benefits of cargo unitization, various institutional changes are called for which would permit the uninterrupted movement of such units from origin to destination without intermediate unloading for Customs' inspections and the official clearance of goods at destination.
