Illegality of maritime contracts breaching SOLAS/ISPS Code maritime security legislation
This article discusses basic principles of contract law in relation to the ever-expanding area of maritime security law. Specifically, it tries to answer the question whether breach of maritime security legislation contained in the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974, as amended (SOLAS), or the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code) could lead, in addition to criminal or administrative sanctions, to contracts for the operation of the vessel, such as contracts of carriage and towage, being denied enforceability in a court of law.

Abstract

This article discusses basic principles of contract law in relation to the ever-expanding area of maritime security law. Specifically, it tries to answer the question whether breach of maritime security legislation contained in the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea, 1974, as amended (SOLAS), or the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code (ISPS Code) could lead, in addition to criminal or administrative sanctions, to contracts for the operation of the vessel, such as contracts of carriage and towage, being denied enforceability in a court of law.
