HSC Code (2000) Operating Limits |
Members of the IMO Naval Architecture Group have expressed concern over the lack of consistency and completeness when determining the operating limitations for the Permit to Operate under the HSC Code (2000). These concerns were brought to the attention of the DE Sub Committee in two papers, (DE 49/5/3 and DE 49/INF.5), submitted on behalf of the IMO Naval architecture Group by the Royal Institution of Naval Architects, in its capacity as a Non Governmental Organisation. The Sub-Committee agreed that these concerns should be addressed, and proposed to MSC that a new work item for the development of guidelines to assist Administrations should be introduced. The Sub Committee also also established a Correspondence Group to devel draft Guidelines for uniform operating limitations. |
