Chairman’s Introduction
Dear Delegates,
The Cadwallader lectures have a long tradition of addressing issues of immediate and long‑
term significance in international maritime law and regulation to guide those interested in
making and applying good law.
In line with this, the subject chosen for the 11th Cad debate takes the theme of the 10th event
‘Lawmaking and Implementation in international shipping’ a step further.
In all industries, consultation and constructive communications between regulators,
politicians, and industry leaders prior to regulatory and legislative changes are vital. It is
especially so in shipping, given its complex nature and international environment.
The structure, quality and timing of communications between politicians, regulators, the
European Commission and the shipping industry are of immense significance in creating
laws and regulations which are internationally acceptable, effective and well founded.
Our panel at this event will debate whether the present state of communications is satisfactory
and if not, what is the missing link and the best way forward.
We hope that the discussions tonight will mark the beginning of a move towards enhanced
and comprehensive co‑operation in the future over regulation.
Thank you for your support.
Dr Aleka Sheppard
Chairman, LSLC Maritime Business Forum

LSLC - MARITIME BUSINESS FORUM
The core of the Centre’s raison d’être is to encourage, facilitate and reinforce high quality in
maritime services for all sectors of the shipping industry through continuing professional education.
The Centre:
• Delivers monthly lectures, seminars and annual events of the highest standard in all aspects of maritime law, international conventions, insurance, finance, regulation and related subjects
• Informs and advises on current legal issues and global problems affecting maritime commerce and the practice of maritime law
• Brings together at its seminar and lecture events experts from multidisciplinary areas in the commercial and legal practice of shipping, whose knowledge is essential to the development
of maritime law
• Challenges unworkable law and regulation and thereby promotes their reform• Promotes dialogue between the industry and regulatory bodies at a neutral forum by
highlighting the concerns of the industry about impractical regulation
The Centre has pursued these objectives since its inception in 1995. In 2009, it moved from the academic environment of University College London to the City of London at International
House, 1 St. Katharine’s Way, with sponsorship from RTI Ltd. This has helped to strengthen its Maritime Business Forum role.
The Centre has nurtured excellent relationships with the International Maritime Organization, the European Commission, academic institutions and the London and international shipping
communities. It will continue to play a pivotal role in the advancement of knowledge of industry
sectors.
Coinciding with the 11th Cadwallader event, the Centre is pleased to announce the formation of its ‘Young LSLC group’ to encourage younger maritime practitioners in all sectors to stage
their own educational events under the Centre’s auspices. The aim is to give opportunities to the
younger generation of shipping to show their talents by taking the lead in panels for discussion
of practical and legal issues in maritime commerce, thereby promoting their career advancement
and cross-fertilization of knowledge, which is essential in our multi-disciplinary industry.
Further, the Centre’s events will become available from now on to our overseas members and
the maritime community worldwide through a multimedia online platform (www.lslclectures.com),
where the filmed events can be viewed together with presentations and research material, including legislation, media reports and educational tests.

In honour of cad’s contribution to maritime education
Professor Francis J J Cadwallader, known as ‘Cad’ to those who knew him well, taught at
