Introduction ABP (The Harbour Authority) has developed policies and plans in accordance with the standards set out in the Port Marine Safety Code (PMSC). This document details the policies adopted to achieve the Code’s required standard. The policies and plans are based upon a full assessment of the requirements of the Port Marine Safety Code and the hazards that have to be managed to provide for the marine safety of ABP’s ports and harbours and their users. This document is intended to be read in conjunction with ABP Port Marine Operational Procedures Manuals, which detail how the policies set out in this document will be implemented. These documents, together with other group policies, and local policies and procedures, underpin the ABP Group “Marine Safety Management System” (MSMS). Each section of this policy is cross referenced to the appropriate sections of the current version of Port Marine Safety Code (November 2016), for example (1.1 – 1.5) 2. Accountability for Marine Safety Duties and Powers: ABP as Harbour Authority (1.1 – 1.5) ABP is ultimately owned by ABP (Jersey) Limited, a limited liability company incorporated in Jersey. However, under Part II of the Transport Act 1981 ABP is controlled by Associated British Ports Holdings Ltd (ABPH), a company formed by the Secretary of State. The directors of ABP (of which there must not be less than five or more than thirteen) are appointed by ABPH, but ABPH has no power to give directions to the directors of ABP in respect of the execution of their powers and duties as a Harbour Authority.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Humber ports handle 19%, by volume, of all UK maritime imports with high volumes of liquid and dry bulk fuels. Its importance as an entry point for unit load traffic is evident in the fact that 19% of all UK foreign trailer-based imports enter the country through Immingham, Killingholme and Hull. Roughly 11% of the UK’s foreign imports of food come through the range of major Humber ports and smaller terminals and wharves along the River Humber and River Trent, with EU and non EU food imports among the 3.7 million tonnes, being of equal significance compared to the UK’s total food imports from EU and non EU sources (also 11%). The importance of fish imports (mainly in containers), palm oil and sugar is evident. In addition to container loads of fish from Iceland and Norway there are estimated to be 50 containers per week arriving in Immingham from China and the Far East on deep sea feeder services.

  • Do You Think the Welsh Government Is Taking a Strategic Approach to Developing the Potential of the Maritime Economy?
    Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru National Assembly for Wales Y Pwyllgor Menter a Busnes Enterprise and Business Committee Ymchwiliad i Botensial yr Economi Forol Inquiry into the Potential of the Maritime yng Nghymru Economy in Wales PME 15 PME 15 Cymdeithas Porthladdoedd Prydain Associated British Ports Consultation questions Role of Government Question 1 - Do you think the Welsh Government is taking a strategic approach to developing the potential of the maritime economy? It is widely appreciated that ports are a key part of the supply chain of many large industries in Wales, including steel making, energy production, energy distribution, agriculture, construction and other manufacturing processes. A recent investigation undertaken by Arup (summary attached) indicates that ABP’s ports in South Wales support 15,000 Welsh jobs and contribute over £1bn to the local economy annually. Ports also enable significant value through the potential for regeneration and development of leisure and residential sectors for example Swansea SA1, Barry Waterfront and Cardiff Bay. In addition there are significant opportunities associated with coastal energy projects, wind, tide or wave driven which often require significant port infrastructure for their construction and operation. ABP is encouraged that Welsh Government is focussing on the benefits provided by the maritime sector. ABP would wish to engage closely with WG in respect of inward investment and the potential offered by its strategic land areas on its Port estates and employment sites in close proximity with good access to Ports. Are there any examples of best practice in this area? There are a number of good examples within ABP where cooperation between Government and local authorities has secured significant investment and good quality sustainable employment, for example on the Humber, Greenport Hull is a combined investment in excess of £300m that will provide the offshore wind industry with a manufacturing and logistics hub to feed offshore wind developments in the North Sea.
