1231 Interim scheme for the compliance of certain cargo ships

Interim scheme for the compliance of certain cargo ships and special purpose ships with the management for the safe operations of ships

  1. The Maritime Safety Committee (the Committee), at its eighty-second session (29 November to 8 December 2006), noted that in a number of cases, cargo ships and special purposes ships of 500 gross tonnage and upwards engaged on international voyages were not required to comply with the provisions of SOLAS chapter IX and the ISM Code, on the grounds that the provisions of resolution A.494(XII) on the Revised Interim Scheme for Tonnage Measurement for Certain Ships were applicable to them and thus they were allowed to use the gross tonnage, as determined under national tonnage rules which were in effect prior to the coming into force of the International Convention on Tonnage Measurement of Ships, 1969 (TONNAGE 69), for establishing the applicability of SOLAS chapter IX and the ISM Code.

  2. The Committee agreed that the gross tonnage to be used for determining whether a cargo ship or special purpose ship engaged on international voyages is required to comply with the provisions of SOLAS chapter IX and the ISM Code shall be that determined in accordance with the provisions of TONNAGE 69.

  3. The Committee recognized that immediate compliance of the cargo ships or special purpose ships which have not been required to comply with the provisions of SOLAS chapter IX and the ISM Code presented practical difficulties and would affect the owners and the Companies operating such ships. As a result the Committee adopted the Interim Scheme for the compliance of certain cargo ships and special purpose ships with the Management for the safe operations of ships (the Interim Scheme) as set out at annex.

  4. SOLAS Contracting Governments are invited to bring the Interim Scheme to the attention of owners and of companies operating cargo ships and special purpose ships entitled to fly their flag.

  5. SOLAS Contracting Governments, international organizations and non-governmental organizations with consultative status that encounter difficulties with the implementation of the Interim Scheme should bring, at the earliest opportunity, the matter to the attention of the Committee for consideration of the issues involved and decision on the actions to be taken.
