  6. COUNCIL NOVEMBER 2009 When considering Organizational Review, The Council … agreed that some narrowing of the scope of activities, the assigning of priorities and reduction in overall bureaucracy was desirable. While there were strong arguments for concentrating mostly on tanker-specific issues, it was also observed that many INTERTANKO members have other ship types in addition to tankers and would be likely to find non-tanker specific issues also to be of value to their membership.
