Whatever the future holds – the UK Government will support the maritime industry every step of the way. Earlier this year we demonstrated this long term commitment with the launch of our Maritime 2050 strategy – our vision for the sector over the next three decades. It sets out how we will ready the industry for the challenges and opportunities of the years to come. 6 REPORT – AUTUMN 2019 MARITIME 2050 7 Maritime 2050: turning a bold vision into reality • ENABLE THE UK TO REMAIN A GLOBAL LEADER IN ALL ASPECTS OF MARITIME Roger Hargreaves, Director of Maritime at the • POSITION THIS COUNTRY AS AN Department for Transport, discusses the ongoing importance of the maritime sector to the UK economy INTERNATIONAL ROLE MODEL and some of the strides made by government in recent months towards achieving key strategic goals. • PROMOTE A LIBERALISED TRADING REGIME, BUILD A DIVERSE & SKILLED WORKFORCE, SET EXEMPLARY SAFETY STANDARDS & TAKE THE LEAD ON OUR ENVIRONMENTAL OBLIGATIONS • DEMONSTRATE TO THE WORLD THAT THE UK IS THE PLACE TO DO MARITIME BUSINESS The maritime sector plays an integral role in from how best to harness technology and that the UK is the place to do maritime in a way that is even more efficient be ready to meet these challenges but the UK’s success.
