In October 2003 the 1971 Fund Administrative Council noted that in January 2003 the Court of Appeal had issued a preliminary judgement appointing a local marine expert to review all documents relating to the case in order to establish the terms of the charter party, its commencement date and duration and the identity of the tug owner. It was also noted that the expert had further been asked to verify the extent of the pollution damage suffered by the victims who had been paid compensation by the Fund.
