The long-range identification and tracking (LRIT) of ships aims to enhance security for government authorities. LRIT provides ship identity and current location information in sufficient time for a government to evaluate the security risk posed by a ship off its coast and to respond, if necessary, to reduce the risk.

LRIT Cooperative Data Centre
The objective of the EU LRIT CDC is to identify and track EU flagged vessels worldwide and integrate them into the wider international Long Range Identification and Tracking (LRIT) system.
The system was initially set up for the purposes of maritime security, but was soon extended for use in areas such as Search and Rescue (SAR), maritime safety and protection of the marine environment. Ships send automatic position reports every 6 hours, which are received by satellite, and securely transferred to data centres which manage LRIT information on behalf of flag States.
The European Union Cooperative Data Centre (EU LRIT CDC) disseminates LRIT information on EU-flagged ships around the world on behalf of all European flag States, and exchanges information

The resolution recognizes that there is no universally accepted definition of fatigue but draws the attention of all parties involved in ship operations to the factors which can contribute to fatigue including, but not limited to, those listed below and to take them into account when making decisions on ship operations.
Guidance on Fatigue Mitigation and Management
To assist in the development of a maritime safety culture by addressing the issue of fatigue, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has developed practical guidance to assist interested parties to better understand and manage the issue of “fatigue.”

Las cofradías buscan el "mejor aprovechamiento" del espacio de trabajo en las embarcaciones
Las cofradías gallegas tienen nuevas reivindicaciones. Después de exigir, recientemente, ayudas para paliar las pérdidas por los temporales que azotaron la costa gallega a principios de año, la Federación Galega de Confrarías de Pescadores acordó en su última reunión del Comité Ejecutivo solicitar medidas para reducir los costes de mantenimiento y mejorar las condiciones de trabajo en las embarcaciones. Las principales demandas de los pósitos a las administraciones -Xunta y Gobierno- pasan por la exención en
