Executive Summary
Needs Assessment and Maritime Legislation Review, and National Seminar on
Flag State Implementation were underdertaken in Luanda where is located the
Head Office of the Angola Maritime Administration represented by the IMPA
(Instituto Maritimo Portuario de Angola).
According to IMPA there is the intention to ask for an “IMO voluntary audit” as
soon as possible. Therefore as much recommendations as possible should be
implemented in order to receive the feedback of that audit. Or, if compatible with
the purposes of Angola, do it as latter as possible.
The following report provides details of the findings, conclusions and
recommendations of this mission.
1. Introduction
In the global context of the EC/ACP/IMO Project, two technical advisory
missions have been arranged to take place concurrently, in Luanda, Angola,
from 25th to 29th August 2014, to assess the functioning of the maritime
administration and assist in the review of the maritime legislation.
The mission consisted of a team of two consultants, one Consultant on Maritime
Legislation (ML) and one Consultant on Maritime Safety Administration (MSA).
2. Members of the Mission Team
Mr. Antonio Coelho (Team Leader)
Mrs. Catarina Arenga
3. Involved Officials from the Member State
Mrs. Rosa Sobrinho served as focal point for IMO and Mr. Tiago Neto was the
field contact of this mission. For the participants at the meetings and interviews
(see Appendix II) and in the seminar (Appendix IIA).
4. Acknowledgements
The consultants wish to express their considerable thanks to the various
members of the staff interviewed at the Instituto Marítimo Portuário de Angola
(IMPA) and the several stakeholders representative of the significant Ministries
of Angola for their fullest cooperation during this mission. In particular, thanks
are due to the Director General of IMPA, Victor Alexandre Carvalho, Mrs. Rosa
5
Sobrinho and Mr. Tiago Neto for their efforts during the preparation and
implementation of this mission.
5. Scope, objectives and activities of the Mission
The objectives of the mission were to:
-
assist Angola to upgrade its maritime safety administration in order to
perform its duties, taking into account potential synergies for regional
cooperation and harmonization in the carrying out of its duties as flag,
port and coastal States.
-
assess the existing structure of the maritime
administration’s
responsibilities as flag, coastal and port State, and assess the
implementation of the International Safety Management (ISM) Code by
ship-owners and on board of national fleets;
-
review the performance of agencies authorized to execute flag State and
port State control duties, including authorization of recognized
organizations, and collect information regarding execution of ship
inspection, Port State Control (PSC) functions, marine casualty
investigation and available human resources;
-
identify gaps in required (mandated) performance levels by implementing
agents and actual performance and recommending actions and
decisions for improvement including budgetary provisions, staff training
needs, performance audits, detention recording, sanction policies and
national and mechanisms for international and regional data exchange;
-
analyze the regulatory and enforcing functions performed by the maritime
affairs department (maritime safety, marine environment, maritime/port
security, training and certification, etc.).
6. Activities
The main activities of the 5 days were as follows:
On the first day, Mr. Tiago Neto kindly took the Consultants to visit the port of
Luanda and to have a look around from the city, coming back to the center by a
high speed craft used daily to cross Luanda North to Luanda South.
On days 2 and 3, both consultants met the Angolan Maritime Administration
management and relevant stakeholders to gather relevant documentation and
information in order to assess the existing structure of the Administration’s
responsibility as flag, port and coastal State (PART I).
On the day 4 and 5 was carried out the seminar (PART II).
6
PART I
1- International Maritime Conventions
Angola ratified the following conventions and protocols, accordingly to the
official Diary of Angola (all published in the Diário da República de Angola):
IMO Convention, 1948
SOLAS, 1974
SOLAS Protocol, 1978
Load Lines, 1966
Tonnage, 1969
COLREG, 1972
CSC Convention, 1972
STCW, 1978
SAR Convention, 1979
MARPOL, 73/78 (Annex I to V)
London Convention Protocol, 1996
Intervention Convention, 1969
CLC Protocol, 1992
FUND Protocol, 1992
OPRC Convention, 1990
HNS Convention, 1996
However, after the contacts established with Angola’s Maritime Authority, the
consultants verified that there were no evidences that these conventions were
implemented through regulations and/or the appropriate national instruments to
become effective.
Regarding Annex VI of MARPOL, the consultants have been informed by IMPA
that it was ratified, but IMO information regarding “the status of Conventions” is
not yet updated.
2- Assessment of the ratification process of international instruments
The Consultants concluded that the ratification process of international
instruments is correctly done. Its legal basis is the “National Law about the
International Treaties”, implemented in the Angolan law (published in the Diário
da República de Angola) by the Law nr. 4/11, 14th January.
This law regulates the process of negotiation and conclusion of the international
treaties [“international treaty”, which includes treaties, agreements, conventions,
statutes, letters, protocols, concordats, between the Angolan State and other
subjects of International Law ( article 1st. 3)] where Angola is a party (article
1st./1).
7
3- National Maritime Law (Law nr. 27/12, 28th August)
The National Maritime Law, called in Portuguese, Lei da Marinha Mercante,
Portos e Actividades Conexas (Lei nr. 27/12, 28th August) establishes the
juridical structure of the maritime and portuary sector, as well as its economical
activities.
According to the above law (Article 3rd/ 20; Article 9th/1/a of the Law nr. 27/12,
28th August), and after having examined it with the relevant authorities and
received information about the “spirit” of the law, IMPA (Instituto Marítimo
Portuário de Angola) is:
1) the National Maritime Administration of Angola; and
2) the competent and responsible authority, which coordinates the National
Maritime Authority. The National Maritime Authority is composed by
Departments of several relevant Ministries together with the bodies of the
National Security System, National Coast Guard, the National System of
Maritime Vigilance.
4- The Maritime Administration (MARAD)
The maritime administration (MARAD) of the Republic of Angola is the Instituto
Maritimo Portuário de Angola (IMPA) in Luanda, Angola. It is a governmental
autonomous body headed by a Director General reporting directly to the
Minister of Transports.
The MARAD maintains its head office in Luanda, and has local representation
at all national ports (Capitanias and Delegações Maritimas).
The MARAD has a relatively simple structure of apparently sufficient size and
location, but only due to the fact that it is not implementing yet IMO Conventions
(regulations for their application need to be prepared), coastal or port State
activities, which would result in a further reorganization.
The IMPA is responsible for both domestic and international shipping activities,
including port and coastal State obligations. Presently, IMPA has 6 maritime
safety inspectors, 70 employees at management level, 400 support staff plus
180 technical staff. It was further reported that the number of employees of the
IMPA is under review.
The next figure illustrates the current structure of IMPA:

5- Implementation of the International Safety Management (ISM) Code by
ship-owners and on board of national fleets
There is no secondary legislation on the ISM Code and it is not implemented.
6- Authorization of recognized organizations
During the mission, it was verified that IMPA is in the process of drafting a
formal agreement to delegate various tasks and responsibilities to its
implementing agent, which acts on its behalf regarding aspects of mandatory
IMO instruments concerning flag State obligations. This agreement was set and
was recently approved by a regulation about Recognized Organizations.
7- National fleet
The fleet size and number operating only in Angolan coastal waters is very
small, which means that none of the Angolan registered vessels are engaged in
international voyages. However, it is known that most of the vessels calling the
national ports while having a foreign flag are property of Angolan nationals,
Angolan companies or Angolan interests.
8- PSC functions (including cooperation with and/or membership in the
Abuja MOU)
Port State Control as in accordance with IMO Conventions is not implemented.
The cooperation with the Abuja MOU may increase once the PSC under IMO
conventions is implemented.
9
9- STCW matters
Angola does not, for the time being, have any maritime training facilities for
seafarers. There is no secondary legislation on the STCW and the Convention
is not implemented.
10- Casualty investigation
IMPA carries out some type of investigation. However, some investigation is
superficial and, in other situations, made in a non-systematic manner. IMO
recommendations on technical investigations are not observed and there are no
guidelines for a correct investigation.
11- Support systems and availability of financial resources
The adoption of new regulations, as well as their implementation, will mean that
further support will be required, concerning financial and human resources. This
could be possible to ensure tasks which are not correctly performed nowadays,
including:
- regulatory watch keeping,
- elaboration and update of technical regulations,
- clear definition of inspection and certification procedures,
- collection of performance indicators for the fleet and the administration.
The Maritime Administration is in need of increasing budgetary resources to
effectively discharge its national and international obligations. Nevertheless,
some of the future activities, as IMPA is an autonomous body, may raise its own
revenue and it would enable to recruit and retain high caliber professional civil
servants.
12- Marine environment
There is in place a “National Plan of Contingency against Oil Pollution in the
Sea”. The Plan was created under Resolution of the Council of Ministers nr. 87A/08, 22nd de December (published in Diário da República de Angola), as
foreseen in OPRC Convention 1990
13- Port Security
Although Angola has ratified SOLAS Convention 74 and its Protocol 78, thus
having the responsibility to regulate and implement the ISPS Code, the only
legal evidence that we found, as a governmental initiative towards its
application, was the decree nr. 48/05, 8th of August (published in the Diário da
República de Angola).
10
This decree creates a National Committee for the application of the ISPS code
and it is named as CN-ISPS (article 1st), which is coordinated by IMPA
(Instituto Marítimo e Portuário de Angola). Accordingly to the decree, dated
from 8th of August of 2005, article 5th, the Committee ISPS should have, within
60 days from its publication, created the structural and material conditions for
the application of the code ISPS and its intern regulation.
The consultants were told that the system was working satisfactorily.
14- Coastal State activities
The competencies of Coastal State activities do not fit in only in IMPA. There
are other organizations, from the Ministry of Petroleum and the Ministry of the
Environment, to which belong the same competencies. This area will be easier
understood after the implementation of a Coast Guard, as in accordance with
the National Maritime Law.
11
PART II
REPORT
SEMINAR/WORKSHOP ON FSI
1-Introduction
A two-day seminar attended by officials from the maritime administration directly
involved in flag State and/or port State related activities (see Appendix IIA).
The workshop program was conducted as shown in Appendix I, however more
basic concepts were also presented so that the audience could be able to
understand the subject under consideration.
The course was facilitated by the Lead Consultant, supported by the Maritime
Legislation Consultant.
2-Objective
The objective of this assignment is to assist Angola to upgrade its maritime
safety administration in order to perform its duties, taking into account potential
synergies for regional cooperation and harmonization in the carrying out its
duties as flag, port and coastal State.
3-Venue, Dates, Roles and Participants
The workshop was held at the hotel TRÓPICO LUANDA from 28th to the 29th of
August 2014. The event was organized by the International Maritime
Organization (IMO) in collaboration with the IMPA.
There were 66 participants from various National Government Departments and
the Maritime Industry. A list of the names, addresses, and organizations is
attached hereto as Appendix IIA (see photos as Appendix III).
The workshop was designed with the needs of government management at
ministry level and local maritime industry in mind, and the positions of the
participants reflected this goal with numerous Managers of Port and Maritime
related Operations, and Heads of Marine and Government Departments
attending. Thus, the information imparted by the workshop was focused at the
appropriate level, to ensure the highest return value for the time, personnel, and
other resources dedicated by each organization.
12
4-Activities and Proceedings
The opening ceremony took place at the Trópico Hotel conference centre and
consisted of a welcome speech by Director General of IMPA who thanked the
IMO and the consultants and welcomed them to Angola.
The presentations were as in accordance with Appendix I.
5- Closing Ceremony
Immediately following the conclusion of the workshop, the closing ceremony
took place.
It commenced with a speech from the Head of Department, Mr Tiago Neto,
followed by Mr. Coelho who made his final remarks on behalf of the IMO and
the consultants.
The closing speech was from the Chairman of IMPA, who thanked the IMO,
associated partners and the consultants for the success of the workshop. He
also thanked the delegates for their active and fruitful participation in the
discussions and expressed his wish to see them ensuring an efficient follow-up
of the workshop in Angola in order to achieve the effective implementation of
the relevant IMO instruments.
Certificates were then distributed to all of the participants.
13
PART III
RECOMENDATIONS
1. Plan / Strategy
The willing of the Angolan Government to implement IMO Conventions and its
interest to modernize the MARAD deserve praise, however there is no evidence
that an overall strategy was developed, to ensure that its international
obligations and responsibilities as a flag, port and coastal State are met; neither
on the establishment of a methodology to monitor, assess or continuously
review that the strategy ensures effective implementation and enforcement of
relevant international mandatory instruments.
2. The Maritime Administration (MARAD) of ANGOLA
It is recommended that the existing organization of the MARAD should be
revised to be able to implement the new responsibilities that will emerge with
the regulation of the ratified conventions.
Take into account the willing of Angola to improve its MARAD performance and
comply with Conventions, it is important to set up a Quality Control cabinet. The
Quality Control cabinet could work initially as a support unit for the
implementation of the IMO instruments and then as a quality control of services
of the IMPA.
Other important area / division to be introduced is a technical maritime safety
regulation that could be in charge of preparing the vessel safety regulations,
working procedures for surveyors, etc.
3. Posts and Job description for the MARAD Officers
It is very important for the MARAD, at the early stages of its establishment, to
have a detailed job description (with Terms of Reference) of the various
positions within the departments and divisions. The job description for every
post should be in line with the organization structure, mandates and functions of
the MARAD.
4. IMO National Commitee
As it already exists in some countries, a simple structure, named for example
IMO National Committee, could be set up to coordinate actions of different
entities, which have competencies in areas related with maritime activities. The
Committee would ensure that the instruments of IMO would be implemented at
a national level without any overlapping competencies.
14
5. Vessel Safety Regulations (Convention vessels)
Adoption of the following regulations:
a) Regulate Tonnage Convention
b) Regulate SOLAS Convention by adopting dedicated vessel type
regulations such as:
- Passenger vessel regulation
- Cargo vessel regulations
- GMDSS regulation,
Etc.
c) Regulate Load Lines Convention
d) Regulate activities of Port State Control
Manual with procedures
To implement the regulations should be adopted specific procedures regarding
check lists, report writing and records.
6. Vessel Safety Regulations (no Convention vessels)
Adoption of the following regulations:
a) Tonnage measurement of small vessel
b) Passenger vessel in coastal waters
c) Cargo vessels under 500 GT
d) Fishing vessels
e) Small fishing vessels
Manual with procedures
To implement the regulations specific procedures regarding check lists, report
writing and records, should be adopted.
15
7. Radio-communications Regulation (Convention and no Convention
vessels)
This regulation would give legal support to the IMPA activities on radio station,
inspections etc.
8- Casualty Investigation Regulation
A regulation on investigation of maritime accidents, in order to comply with the
responsibilities under IMO and ILO relevant international Conventions should be
adopted. Then, provisions facilitating the start of safety investigations and
proper analysis of marine casualties and incidents should be set up in order to
determine their causes. The regulation should be in accordance with the IMO
Code for the Investigation of Marine Casualties and Incidents.
9- Ship Registration regulation
The regulation
The Maritime Administration needs to have a dedicated ship registration
regulation, as expressed in the National Maritime Law. A proper screening
system for ship eligibility for registration in the country is deemed desirable in
the light of the requirements of the law and of the applicable international
conventions. This Regulation makes mandatory the principle that all vessels
must be registered as it is the primary condition to be allowed to operate under
Angolan flag.
Procedures manual for ship registration
A manual should be prepared containing procedures for different types of
registration and types of vessels.
10- MARPOL Implementation
Competencies related to the MARPOL Convention are within several Ministries:
Environment, Petroleum and Transports. We have reviewed legislation
regarding MARPOL where competencies for inspections are not within the
MARAD. This issue needs to be discussed by the competent organizations from
the above ministries. The IMO National Committee may be the right place to
coordinate competencies. The figure below shows how the main functions of
MARPOL which are contained in an IMO book, can support the Administrations
to prepare national legislation to implement the Convention.
16
11- STCW
The IMPA intends to establish cooperation mechanisms with a foreign party to
help with the implementation of the STCW. The way chosen or any other one
should be implemented urgently.
Anyway using in house resources it is highly recommended to start the
development of relevant documentation and provision guidance concerning
those requirements, that can be found in the relevant international instruments
that are available to the Administration.
To ensure that ships entitled to fly Angola flag are sufficiently and efficiently
manned, taking into account relevant and existing measures such as the
Principles of Safe Manning also using in house resources, a legal detailed
document should be adopted.
17
Part II flag states
12- Training
It is recommended that locals with a higher level of education should be chosen
to go abroad to complement their education regarding maritime safety
administration matters (shipping register, survey and certification) and, also one
Law Graduate should be chosen to complement her/his education abroad, in
the field of maritime law.
13- IMO Technical Assistance
It is recommended the continuation of technical assistance programmes from
IMO to the Government of Angola, in the preparation of additional technical
regulations.
(SEE THE ANNEX TO THIS RECOMMENDATIONS WHICH CONTAINS THE
RESUME OF RECOMMENDATIONS AND REFERENCES)
CONCLUSIONS
The mission acknowledged that several and important IMO Conventions were,
in fact, ratified and published into national law, and that there were areas of
good practice. Areas for additional improvement where also identified.
According to IMPA, there is the intention to ask for an “IMO voluntary audit
exercise” as soon as possible. Therefore it should be implemented as much
recommendations as possible in order to be possible to receive the feedback of
that audit.
The consultants also concluded from the available information to them that
Angola is working in a good direction towards maritime safety. Moreover, the
Director General of IMPA is aware of the steps to be done to comply with IMO
Conventions.

NOTE 1-Short guideline for the creation of the Quality Control Cabinet
Mission Statement
The mission of the Quality Control Cabinet (QCC) is to improve the
management performance level, accountability, and data reporting of the
Maritime Administration. Therefore a management system has to be
implemented following the basic principles of ISO 9001:2000 but without
certification by an external body (to be considered later on) . The Quality
Control Cabinet could work initially as a support unit for the implementation of
the FSI code and then as a quality control of services of the IMPA.
Services provided
The QCC will provide, develop and maintain a system of quality
assurance management. Such system covers mainly the processes of
the IMO implementation Conventions including the development of
documentation and techniques which guarantee satisfactory quality of
IMPA services.
Single point of contact
The QCC will be the designated single point of contact for audit purposes
Goals
The general objective of a quality assurance unit in an organization is
an enhancement of product and service quality and an increase of
customer satisfaction. To achieve this objective, QCC should reach
the following goals :






Continuous and consistent development, implementation and
maintenance of quality assurance management system
Staff training and compliance with the requirements of the
quality assurance management
Quality control over provided services in accordance with The
Rules and Standards of the IMPA.
Developing and making arrangements for enhancing the quality
of provided products and services
Organizing and conducting internal audit of the quality
assurance management system
Organizing and controlling corrective and preventing actions of
quality management
23
Procedures
The QCC is responsible for a set of procedures and processes which
minimize unintentional error. Each department of the IMPA should
have documentation for quality regulations and is acquainted with the
corporate quality assurance policy. The employees from each
department should perfectly understand how much it is important for
the IMPA to provide high quality services.
24
NOTE 2-Short guideline relating to the structure and organization and
functioning of the IMO National Committee (IMONC)
Objectives
The main objectives of the IMO National Committee (IMONC), are to guarantee
that the Government of Angola follows the International the Maritime
Organization works, as well as assuring that the deriving instruments of this
organization can be implemented at national level.
Attributions
The IMONC will have the following attributions:
--To coordinate actions of different entities, which have competencies in areas
related with maritime activities;
- To promote and to support the participation of Angola in the IMO meetings;
- To keep updated on the IMO matter, all the governmental maritime related
entities
-To ensure that the instruments of IMO would be implemented at a national
level without any overlapping competencies.
Composition
The Ministries having competences in IMO related matters have to be
