The IMO provided ISPS Code implementation figures as of June 11, 2004. To date, 38 governments have provided responses indicating 21,347 ships from those nations are subject to the ISPS Code; 16,465 ship security plans have been submitted to these governments; and 4,841 International Ship Security Certificates (ISSCs) have been issued. Of the 6,114 port facilities identified by these governments, 2,044 have submitted security plans and 654 have been approved. This data indicates that at least 23% of the ships and 66% of the port facilities of these 38 countries have little hope of timely compliance since they have not even submitted security plans for review Source: HK Law.
