Paying tribute to IMO


The Bahamas continues to be one of the first council members to present its annual assessment payment to the international maritime organisation (IMO) in the course of February 2020. The payment to the IMO was transferred in full and in advance of the deadline.

 

The contribution for 2020 was followed up by a courtesy call at the IMO’s London headquarters by a team of representatives from The Bahamas led by The Bahamas high commissioner HE Ellison Greenslade and The Bahamas Maritime Authority (BMA) managing director and CEO Captain Dwain Hutchinson.

 

As a major ship register, The Bahamas’ annual assessed contribution represents 4% of the IMO’s overall 2020 budget, making it one of the largest financial contributors to the organisation. This year’s contribution was in excess of USD 1.3 million. The IMO secretary-general expressed his thanks on behalf of his organisation. (mw)
