The Committee received an update on the IMO Member State Audit Scheme (IMSAS), noting that 16 of the planned 19 mandatory audits scheduled for this year had already been completed, with preparatory work underway for the 23 audits scheduled for 2017. All 19 Member States being audited in 2016 had consented for their executive summary reports, corrective action plans and future comments on the implementation of their plans to be made available to all Member States via the IMO shipping information system module. This is expected to assist the membership in future technical cooperation planning.
