V Marine safety and protection of the marine environment from accidental pollution

(b) Effects of marine debris (the effects of marine debris on human health, safety, tourism and other economic activities, navigation, marine species, the marine environment and fisheries) (see A 60 63, paras. 241 247)

Transnational crimes, including piracy and armed robbery, are threatening marine safety and security.

My statement will focus on three issues that are of major concern to Kenya namely, capacity building, marine safety and security, and the marine environment.

Marine debris is a global transboundary pollution problem that constitutes a serious threat to human health and safety, endangers fish stocks, marine biodiversity and marine habitats and has significant costs to local and national economies.

Concerned that marine pollution from all sources, including vessels and, in particular, land based sources, constitutes a serious threat to human health and safety, endangers fish stocks, marine biodiversity and marine habitats and has significant costs to local and national economies,

Concerned that marine pollution from all sources, including vessels and in particular land based sources, constitutes a serious threat to human health and safety, endangers fish stocks, marine biodiversity and marine habitats and has significant costs to local and national economies,

Marine litter originates from many sources and has a wide spectrum of environmental, economic, safety, health and cultural impacts.

Concerned that marine pollution from all sources, including vessels and, in particular, land based sources, constitutes a serious threat to human health and safety, endangers fish stocks, marine biodiversity and marine and coastal habitats and has significant costs to local and national economies,

318. A variety of terms are used for marine protected areas,69 such as marine sanctuary , marine reserve , marine park , protected seascape or wildlife sanctuary .

Such a responsibility poses problems that can be effectively resolved only by a national hydrographic service with responsibility in the areas of hydrography and marine cartography. Hydrography, marine cartography, navigation aids and maritime communications are key factors for maritime safety and for the protection of the marine environment, as well as essential elements for the development of the infrastructures of a nation.

Safety safety first?

My country attaches great interest to several issues addressed in the draft resolutions under our consideration, including the safety of navigation, maritime transportation and the protection and sustainable use of marine biodiversity.

Enhanced marine scientific research is critical for sustainable exploration and exploitation of marine resources.
