Hospital Ship Classification and Protection Act
-
I like this piece of legislation. Imagine we have a pandemic or a war, I hope not but just in case. There's no room left in hospitals all around Europe in the first scenario, in the countries involved on the second scenario. This ships could save lives, and that's what we want. I also like the fact that attacking one of those is illegal, and Councillor Pleasis has done a great work on describing in this piece of legislation how procedures should be made if there's an accident with one of these.
I will vote for it, as I will vote for Ms. Falk's amendmet.
Donald D. Tusk
Councillor for Spain -
Dear collègues, I fully support these proposition concerning the hospital ship classification.
Nevertheless I would like to add the following proposal. Recognizing or classificate is nothing without the ability for the ship to moor. Because the mooring is the main problem nowadays.
Therefore I propose that:
Any ship that is recognized or classified as a hospital ship has the right to dock at the nearest port in the country to which the territorial waters where the ship is currently located are located.And
That passenger whom are recognized or classified as patients have the right to obtain the necessary medical care, explained and documented by and in the national law of the country of arrival.
Thank you,
Mrs. Azaya Dubecq,
EU-Councilor for Nofoaga -
