This is illustrated in the proposal to amend the 1996 limits that was submitted by Japan to the Legal Committee of the IMO, which was also fully supported by the International Chamber Shipping (ICS) and the International Group of P&amp;I Clubs (IG) in their joint proposal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\">See attached file:&nbsp;<br \/>ALCO20140036 Increased limits of liability enters into force in 2015.pdf<br \/>LEG 5(99).pdf<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #022469;\"><strong>\u6d77\u4e8b\u8d54\u507f\u8d23\u4efb\u9650\u989d\u63d0\u9ad8 &#8211; 2015\u5e74\u751f\u6548<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\">\u636e\u56fd\u9645\u6d77\u4e8b\u7ec4\u7ec7\u53d1\u5e03\u7684<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imo.org\/MediaCentre\/PressBriefings\/Pages\/12-LLMC-Prot-limits.aspx#.U-BCitIW0dt\">\u901a\u51fd<\/a>\uff0c2012\u5e744\u6708\u901a\u8fc7\u7684\u300a\u6d77\u4e8b\u8d54\u507f\u8d23\u4efb\u9650\u5236\u516c\u7ea61996\u5e74\u8bae\u5b9a\u4e66\u300b\u5c06\u4e8e2015\u5e746\u67088\u65e5\u8d77\u751f\u6548\u3002\u5c4a\u65f6\uff0c\u6d77\u4e8b\u8d54\u507f\u8d23\u4efb\u9650\u5236\u7684\u9650\u989d\u5c06\u5927\u5e45\u63d0\u9ad8\u3002<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\"><strong>\u300a\u6d77\u4e8b\u8d54\u507f\u8d23\u4efb\u9650\u5236\u516c\u7ea6\u300b\u4fee\u8ba2\u7684\u539f\u56e0<\/strong><br \/>1996\u5e74\u8bae\u5b9a\u4e66\u7b2c8.5\u6761\u89c4\u5b9a\uff0c\u4fee\u6539\u8d23\u4efb\u9650\u989d\u65f6\uff0c\u5e94\u8003\u86513\u4e2a\u56e0\u7d20\uff0c(i)\u4e8b\u6545\u8bb0\u5f55 (ii)\u8d27\u5e01\u4ef7\u503c\u53d8\u5316 (iii)\u4fee\u6539\u9650\u989d\u5bf9\u4fdd\u9669\u6210\u672c\u7684\u5f71\u54cd\u3002<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\">\u8d27\u5e01\u4ef7\u503c\u7684\u6539\u53d8\u5927\u6982\u662f\u4fc3\u4f7f\u4fee\u8ba2\u7684\u4e3b\u8981\u56e0\u7d20\uff0c\u7531\u4e8e\u6709\u5173\u9650\u989d\u90fd\u662f\u8fc7\u53bb\u8bbe\u5b9a\u7684\uff0c\u9700\u8981\u901a\u8fc7\u589e\u5e45\u53cd\u6620\u8fd9\u79cd\u4ef7\u503c\u7684\u53d8\u5316\u3002\u8fd9\u4e00\u70b9\u5df2\u53cd\u6620\u5728\u65e5\u672c\u5411\u56fd\u9645\u6d77\u4e8b\u7ec4\u7ec7\u6cd5\u5f8b\u59d4\u5458\u4f1a\u63d0\u4ea4\u7684\u5bf91996\u5e74\u9650\u989d\u7684\u4fee\u8ba2\u5efa\u8bae\u4e66\u5185\uff0c\u5e76\u5f97\u5230\u56fd\u9645\u822a\u8fd0\u516c\u4f1a\u548c\u56fd\u9645\u4fdd\u8d54\u534f\u4f1a\u96c6\u56e2\u8054\u5408\u63d0\u6848\u7684\u5927\u529b\u652f\u6301\u3002<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 12px; text-align: justify;\">\u8be6\u7ec6\u4fe1\u606f\u8bf7\u53c2\u9605\u9644\u4ef6\u3002<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-align: justify;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;ENG&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;CHN&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;LEG 5(99) According to the&nbsp;circular&nbsp;issued by International Maritime Organization, the 1996 Protocol to the Convention on Limitation of Liability for Maritime Claims (LLMC) that were adopted in April 2012 and which take effect on 8 June 2015 substantially increases the limits of liaiblity.
