Read the passage below carefully:

The Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) was established under the NIMASA Act of 2007 following the merger of the National Maritime Authority (NMA) and the Joint Maritime Labour Industrial Council (JOMALIC). Prior to this merger, the National Maritime Authority focused primarily on shipping policy enforcement, whereas JOMALIC regulated maritime labour relations and dockworkers' welfare. Under the 2007 legislation, NIMASA assumed dual operational responsibility for maritime safety administration and maritime security, while revenue collection from offshore shipping levies was assigned exclusively to the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA). Consequently, NIMASA relies entirely on statutory treasury allocations and maritime safety fees rather than offshore shipping levy collections.

Based on the passage above, determine whether the following statement is True or False: Revenue collection from offshore shipping levies is handled by NIMASA under the 2007 Act.

Cevap: Cevap

Cevap

False. According to the explicit text of the passage, revenue collection from offshore shipping levies was assigned exclusively to the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), so NIMASA does not handle it.
The statement is false because the passage explicitly states that revenue collection from offshore shipping levies was assigned exclusively to the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA), rather than NIMASA.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Locate the explicit statement in the passage regarding revenue collection from offshore shipping levies.
The text states: '...while revenue collection from offshore shipping levies was assigned exclusively to the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA).'
Literal comprehension requires identifying exact facts directly explicitly stated in the text.
2
Compare the statement in the prompt with the retrieved passage detail.
The statement asserts that NIMASA handles revenue collection from offshore shipping levies, which directly contradicts the passage finding that NPA holds exclusive responsibility for this.
Determining truth value depends on direct factual alignment between the text and the prompt statement.
