The following is a definition of International Supplementary Fund For Compensation For Oil Pollution Damage (Supplementary Fund), produced by Tetley, in the context of admiralty law: The Supplementary Fund was established on May 16, 2003 by way of a Protocol (in force March 3, 2005) to the Fund Convention 1992 (see this maritime law term in this legal dictionary), in order to provide a third tier of compensation for marine oil pollution damage, over and above the compensation provided for under the CLC Convention 1992 (see this maritime law term in this legal dictionary) and the Fund Convention 1992 (see this maritime law term in this legal dictionary). The Supplementary Fund and the International Oil Pollution Compensation Fund (see this maritime law term in this legal dictionary) share a common director and secretariat in London.
