Earlier in the 1970s (1973/74), UNCTAD had proposed a cargo sharing rule of 40/40/20 giving each of the trading partner countries the right to carry 40 per cent of the liner cargo generated by their own foreign trade and leaving the remaining 20 per cent for third flag carriers.
The United Nations Convention on a Code of Conduct for Liner Conferences came into force on the 6th of October 1983. Bangladesh had acceded to the convention on the 24th July 1975 and in light of it, the Bangladesh Flag Vessels (Protection) Ordinance 1982 was promulgated. A subsequent gazette notification SRO 343-2/82 was incorporated into the ordinance incorporating the following clause in recognition of UN Code of Conduct for Liner Conference.
The current article is a review of the ordinance that has now been amended and called, "Bangladesh Flag Vessels (Protection) Act 2019" questioning whether the desired objective for enacting the law has been achieved and if there is any economic benefit in the continuation of the law.
