Proposal for a directive
Recital 2
Recital 2
(2) TIt is essential to improve the training of seafarers so as to make the maritime professions more attractive within the Union and improve safety and security at sea, given that the STCW Convention has been integrated into Union law for the first time by Council Directive 94/58/EC of 22 November 1994 on the minimum level of training of seafarers; afterwards the EU rules on training and certification of seafarers have been adapted to the subsequent amendments to the Convention, while a common EU mechanism for the recognition of the systems of training and certification of seafarers in the third countries has been set up; lately, the rules of the Union on this matter have through a recast become Directive 2008/106/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008.
