Conflicts and Delimitation of International Pollution Conventions
Summary:
Cases of potential regulatory conflicts and a "mutual exclusion" relationship amongst most of the international conventions that constitute the international liability regime and compensation for pollution from oil and other dangerous goods are mentioned. At the same time, reference is made to the interventions by the international legislator to resolve these regulatory conflicts, with the inclusion of both supersession clauses and exclusion clauses, as well as specific provisions regarding the denunciation of previous versions of the same international convention. It is examined in detail, through the interpretation and application - in line with both the established practice of the IOPC Fund and the decisions of the national courts of the Contracting States - of all the definitions which form the scope of CLC 1969/1992, the Bunker Convention and the 2010 HNS Convention (considered in the context of its forthcoming international entry into force); and in particular the geographical limits, the definition of ship, the definition of oil and hazardous and / or noxious substances, the claims covered, together with the relative notion of damage and the subjective limits of civil liability, on the basis of which the specific regulatory object of each international convention is specified.
