".
The Parliamentary committee incorporated some of our proposals into the report. They were:
The votes in plenary, however, went in favour of setting up a temporary committee, which shows that our stance did eventually prevail, in a sense. That is why we voted in favour of the report.
the need for Member States to have at their disposal the appropriate means for carrying out checks, which should be achieved by increasing the number of inspectors and improving their working conditions and methods;
the importance of qualified seafarers, in order to ensure that the required preventive maintenance of vessels is carried out;
the existence, aboard vessels carrying dangerous goods, of means for instantly combating small-scale pollution;
providing safe havens with the appropriate means for implementing the relevant emergency plans.
Some important proposals were rejected, however, including the following:
tabling a proposal on the social, living and working conditions of seafarers. These conditions are to be respected aboard ship;
delegating the authority to award qualifications to companies which have the technical expertise needed for the job, and which are independent of shipowners;
setting up a European Parliament committee of inquiry."@en1
