Tender reference number	ENV.A.2/ETU/2014/0038.
Title	Study on the feasibility of a financial instrument to facilitate safe and sound ship recycling.
Description	The European Ship Recycling Regulation (SRR) entered into force on 30.12.2013. Yet shipowners may be tempted to avoid the new recycling-related requirements applicable to EU flag ships by re-flagging their ships to flag states which do not impose similar rules. To address the issue, a financial mechanism to incentivise shipowners to recycle ships in a safe and environmentally sound manner has been considered in the IMO/HKC and the EU SRR contexts respectively. Under Article 29 of the SRR, the Commission is invited to table, if appropriate, a legislative proposal regarding the feasibility of establishing a financial incentive for the safe and sound recycling of ships. The contractor will be tasked with investigating this feasibility, analysing earlier studies and advising on potential ways forward.
