  • Pilotage: la proposition de directive n’est guère appréciée par le secteur
    La proposition de directive de la Commission européenne relative à la libéralisation des services portuaires ne semble guère au goût des professionnels du pilotage. Ainsi, les pilotes de mer français seraient décidés à mener combat en vue d’obtenir une exemption, car ils refusent toute perspective de privatisation et de commercialisation impliquant une concurrence. En mai prochain doit se tenir à Paris une réunion de l’association européenne des pilotes maritimes, qui devrait être l’occasion de rallier d’autres groupements de pilotes européens pour faire pression sur la Commission. Il ne fait pas de doute que les pilotes français trouveront un appui de premier ordre auprès de leurs collègues belges...
  • “Démanteler les consortiums réduirait de 25% le coût du transport maritime”
    Un démantèlement des consortiums et conférences d’armements (et des exemptions des règles de concurrence dont ils bénéficient en Europe et aux Etats-Unis) et une libéralisation du commerce (notamment par l’abrogation des monopoles en matière de services portuaires) se traduiraient par une réduction moyenne d’un tiers dans les prix du transport maritime dans les exportations vers les Etats-Unis. Les économies que réaliseraient ainsi les chargeurs, se monteraient à près de trois milliards de dollars. Telles sont les conclusions auxquelles sont parvenus les auteurs d’un rapport de la Banque mondiale intitulé “Trade in international maritime services: how much does policy matter?”.
  • La liaison Nord-Sud offre des perspectives pour le transbordement dans le nord du Limbourg
    Le ministre-président flamand, Patrick Dewael, a annoncé qu’il voulait provisionner 2 mia. de BEF dans le budget de 2003 pour achever la liaison Nord-Sud devant relier Eindhoven à Huy via Lommel, Hasselt et Saint-Trond. Selon Guido Vrolinckx, de la plate-forme régionale du nord du Limbourg, cette liaison accroît les possibilités de développement des activités de transbordement dans la région.
  • Des pêcheurs mécontents verrouillent les ports néerlandais
    Des pêcheurs néerlandais en colère ont paralysé hier les ports de Rotterdam, IJmuiden et Amsterdam en bloquant l’accès aux ports. Ils protestaient contre la lenteur des compensations financières pour l’interdiction, décrétée par l’UE, de pêcher le cabillaud dans d’importantes parties de la mer du Nord. Cette interdiction est en application pendant six semaines. Les pêcheurs affirment que le manque à gagner se chiffre certainement à 2 à 300.000 NLG par semaine. Ils veulent donc une intervention du secrétaire d’Etat à l’Agriculture et à la Pêche, Geke Faber, ce que ce dernier a toujours refusé jusqu’à présent.
