This chapter explores necessary legal reforms in the shipbreaking industry. Following three case studies, it examines post-incident regulatory changes that aimed at improving business practices and minimising harm. The examination focuses on three key regulatory reforms relevant to the shipbreaking industry. First, the chapter evaluates regulatory changes following major oil spill events and the effectiveness of industry-specific civil liability mechanisms globally. Second, it proposes an insurance-led enforcement mechanism, inspired by oil rig incidents, to reform the shipbreaking industry. Third, it analyses a ship-specific certificate system introduced after a catastrophic event in the UK maritime industry and evaluates the importance of such a system for the shipbreaking industry.
