CRUISING GUIDELINES
     
The cruise industry is continually working to ensure a safe cruise ship environment. For more information on international cruise ship guidelines and policies, visit these websites:

The International Council of Cruise Lines (ICCL)
The International Council of Cruise Lines is to participate in the regulatory and policy development process and promote all measures that foster a safe, secure and healthy cruise ship environment. The ICCL actively monitors international shipping policy and develops recommendations to its membership on a wide variety of issues.

International Maritime Organization (IMO)

A United Nations agency, the International Maritime Organization reviews current maritime issues and sets international law by adopting conventions and treaties that when adopted become international law. ICCL serves as a non-governmental consultative organization to the IMO. ICCL and the members of its experienced technical committee and working groups demonstrate the industry's strong commitment to safety and the environment by actively participating in the deliberations of the IMO.
