The training took place at EMSA premises in Lisbon. It did cover International and European legislation on liability and compensation for maritime
claims, places of refuge, HNS Convention and the Nairobi International Convention on the Removal of Wrecks. Participants had the opportunity to get answers from questions raised during round table discussions and to exchange experiences. Practical exercises and case studies on related issues were also included. The event was tailormade for officials working in the maritime administrations and/or related organisations, dealing with the relevant topics.
