In the Aftermath of Dubai Ports World
The legislative and policy fallout from the biggest
maritime story in years
Thursday, May 25, 2006
2:00 – 3:30 PM (Eastern Standard Time)
It is clear that the fallout from the Dubai Ports episode is
far from over. With Congress considering measures to require
100% scanning of import containers, momentum to legislate
new security measures in the current session of Congress is
growing. Companies need to understand what is being proposed
and how the resulting legislation will impact their
operations. In this 90-minute live teleconference, three of
the most plugged-in experts on container security will offer
their assessment of the situation and predictions of how
developments are likely to play out. They will also take
your questions.
In this teleconference, you will learn:
-
How the DP World controversy has altered the security
debate
-
Which bills are likely to move forward, and what chances
they stand of passage
-
Principal elements of legislation most likely to emerge,
and who it will affect
-
How Department of Homeland Security policies will be
affected
-
How exporters and marine terminals could be impacted
-
How potential changes will impact ports, carriers, and
3PLs
