Major SOLAS amendments adopted (scheduled to enter into force on 1 January 2014)
Means of rescue All ships are to be provided with plans and procedures for recovery of persons from the water. On-board blending of cargoes Physical blending of bulk liquid cargoes during sea voyages will be prohibited on or after 1 January 2014 (blending while in port is acceptable). Free-fall lifeboat testing Simulated operational testing will be allowed carried out during the renewal survey. Stability Computers New passenger ships (over 120 m in length or having more than 3 main vertical zones) shall have onboard stability computers or access to shorebased support to provide information to the Master for facilitating the safe return to port after a flooding casualty. FSS Code Revisions Chapter 6 on Fixed foam fire-extinguishing systems and Chapter 8 on Automatic sprinkler, fire detection and fire alarm were revised.

3 Consideration and adoption of amendments to mandatory instruments Amendments to SOLAS Enter into force 1 January 2014
Chapter II-1, Regulation 8-1 System capabilities after a flooding casualty on passenger ships Existing regulation is replaced. Applies to passenger ships with a length of 120 meters and above with three or more main vertical fire zones. With regards to SRtP (safe return to port) an on-board stability computer is required, or shore-based support for the purpose of providing operational information to the Master after a flooding casualty, Chapter III, Regulation 20 Operational readiness, maintenance and inspections A new subparagraph 11.4 has been added regarding operational testing of the release systems for freefall lifeboats. All parties concerned are encouraged to implement the new subparagraph 11.4 to Regulation 20 at the earliest possible opportunity. Chapter V, Regulation 14 Ships manning Existing text has been re-written with reference to IMO guidance requiring that the manning shall be established following a transparent procedure. Chapter VI, Regulation 5-2 Prohibition of the blending of bulk liquid cargoes and production processes during sea voyages This new regulation describes the prohibit blending of bulk liquid cargoes on-board during sea voyages. However, this prohibition does not apply to the blending of products for the use in the search and exploitation of seabed mineral resources (e.g. oil and gas). Chapter VII, Regulation 4 Documents Existing paragraphs 1 and 2 have been re-written specifying which documents shall be available to parties involved when carrying dangerous goods in packaged form. Chapter XI-1, Regulation 2 Enhanced surveys This regulation has been amended with updated reference to IMO Resolution A.1049(27) (2011 ESP Code)

Amendments to HSC 2000 Code Enter into force 1 January 2014

In Chapter 14 Radiocommunications, paragraph 14.15.10 has been updated stating that annual survey of EPIRBs shall be within the survey window.

Amendments to FSS Code Enter into force 1 January 2014

A new Chapter 6 Fixed foam fire-extinguishing systems for machinery spaces, cargo spaces, vehicle spaces, ro-ro spaces and special category spaces has replaced the existing chapter. Chapter 8 Automatic sprinkler, fire detection and fire alarm systems has been amended with a description of where a dry pipe system or pre-action systems is permitted to be fitted.

Amendments to IMDG Code Enter into force 1 January 2014

The whole IMDG Code with the annexes is updated with regards to uniformed terms, typographic and grammatical matters, in addition to updated information of dangerous goods. The amended IMDG Code may apply on a voluntary basis from 1 January 2013.

Amendment to the International Convention on Load Lines, 1966 and the Protocol of 1988
Details regarding Winter Seasonal Zone off the southern tip of Africa have been included in captioned IMO instruments.

Amendments to SOLAS Appendix - Certificates

All SOLAS safety certificates and records of equipment are to be amended with updated references to appropriate IMO instruments. The Record of equipment for passenger ship safety (Form P) has been amended with new entries for lifejackets. The new entries regarding lifejackets will be as follows; total number of lifejackets, in addition to numbers of adult, child and infant lifejackets. Also, new entry regarding number of life-rafts served by MES will be amended.

4 Measures to enhance maritime security

The Committee, recognizing that shipping companies may find it difficult to identify reliable, professional private providers of armed security, approved guidelines as described below to assist ship operators and ship masters on the use of privately contracted armed security personnel (PMSC) on board ships to provide additional protection against acts of piracy and armed robbery. The guidelines cover PMSC professional certification, including the recommendation that companies should seek certification with relevant national and international private maritime security service standards once these are in place. The guidelines also cover (PMSC) company requirements, including the recommendation that PMSCs should establish procedures to provide maritime security services to ship owners and ship operators and comply with all relevant legal requirements, and they provide advice on management, including recommendations on selection, vetting and training of team personnel. Finally, the guidelines include information on deployment, addressing the PMSCs role in ensuring efficient and successful deployment, including communicating with the ship owner or operator and making recommendations on management of firearms and ammunition from embarkation to disembarkation and use of force. The Committee wants PMSCs to recognize that laws governing the use of force may differ over time and location. The applicable national law, including any criminal laws, for an incident on a ship from which armed guards will be operating will be principally that of the flag state. However, the Committee also noted that PMSCs might be subject to laws and regulations of coastal, port and other states. The Committee requested the International Standardization Organization (ISO) to develop international standards for PMSCs. The Committee approved the following MSC circulars: MSC.1/Circ.1443 Interim guidance to private maritime security companies providing privately contracted armed security personnel on board ships in the high risk area MSC.1/Circ.1405/Rev.2 Revised interim guidance to shipowners, ship operators, and shipmasters on the use of privately contracted armed security personnel on board ships in the high risk area MSC.1/Circ.1444 Interim guidance for flag states on measures to prevent and mitigate Somaliabased piracy.

5 Goal-based new ship construction standards

A Working Group on GBS and FSA discussed: further development of the risk based approach to goal based standards (GBS/Safety Level Approach), and; development of generic IMO Guidelines on approval of risk-based ship design (based on MSC 86/5/3 prepared in the SAFEDOR project). It was agreed to bring both topics forward. At MSC 91 there will be a working group dealing with GBS/SLA and until MSC 92 there will be work done in a correspondence group on preparing guidelines for approval of risk based design.

6 LRIT-related matters
The Committee adopted resolution MSC.330(90) on Amendments to the Revised performance standards and functional requirements for the long-range identification and tracking of ships and resolution MSC.331(90) on Amendments to resolution MSC.298(87) on establishment of a distribution facility.

The Committee furthermore approved the amendments to LRIT Technical documentation (parts I and II, respectively), including the additional draft amendments to be implemented during a future modification testing phase of the LRIT system, and requested the Secretariat to issue updated circulars as MSC.1/Circ.1259/Rev.5 and MSC.1/Circ.1294/Rev.3. The Committee also approved amendments to MSC.1/Circ.1376 on Continuity of service plan for the LRIT system and requested the Secretariat to issue an updated circular as MSC.1/Circ.1376/Rev.1 and approved COMSAR.1/Circ.54 on Audits of LRIT Data Centres and of the International LRIT Data Exchange conducted by the LRIT Coordinator.

19 Formal safety assessment

A number of amendments to the Guidelines for Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) for use in the IMO rule-making process were agreed, the most important being the acceptance criteria for prevention of oil spills. It was also agreed to include the procedures for FSA review in the FSA Guidelines. The Guidance on the use of human element analysing process (HEAP) and Formal Safety Assessment (FSA) in the IMO rule-making will therefore be repealed. The FSA on Crude oil tankers from the SAFEDOR project will now be reviewed, together with a submission by Japan, and so will also another SAFEDOR FSA study on sea transport of dangerous goods.
