changes to the LRIT equipment; changing the Inmarsat Mobile Number (IMN);

changes must be reported to MD for updating the database, so as to avoid failure of the LRIT polling and reception;

MD’s LRIT circular (No. 1/2016) on this matter had been issued on 26 October 2016;

ship may be detained if no CTR onboard or failure of the LRIT polling and reception; and

Master shall regularly check the LRIT system and ensure its correct functioning.

Non Reporting of LRIT information

Reducing the risks of PSC detentions genuine pre-arrival checks according to

checklists as prepared by HKMD; report any defects found during the pre-

arrival checks to the company, and most importantly to the port State prior to arriving that port;

contact HKMD if exemption/dispensation is required and provide justifications;

circulate information from the maritime industry and ROs for reference by the ship staffs.

Defects discovered at Sea immediately inform the company; company to make arrangements for repair or

spare parts, inform RO as necessary; inform the port State prior to arrival and

request local agent to help if necessary; maintain the evidences; contact HK Marine Department, if no service

technician available or spare part takes time to deliver;

HKMD will favorably consider granting temporary exemptions; and

same principle will apply to the dispensation of ship’s crew.

Exemption / Dispensation exemption are for equipment; dispensation are for officers and crew; no dispensation for Master and C/E, as this

was not allowed under the STCW Convention;

note the exemption conditions and comply; exemptions/dispensations are for:

repairs that cannot be arranged; spare parts not immediately available; unable to repatriate officers/crew in some

countries; and not for commercial reasons.

Points to Note during PSC inspections

exercise mutual respect; ensure effective communications

with the PSCO(s); honest reporting of any defects

discovered prior to arrival in port or on arrival of the PSCO(s);

retain documentary evidences to support your clarifications;

don’t argue with the PSCO(s), rather to consider appeal to the MoU; and

don’t attempt to bribery the PSCO(s).

Appeal for detention follow the National appeal procedures of the

respective MoU (on back of detention notice); initial appeal to port State by the company /

shipowner in accordance with appeal procedure of the port State (note deadline for submission);

provide all essential information and necessary details, telefax or e-mail correspondences, photos, etc. to support the appeal;

seek assistances from relevant ROs if necessary; and

keep MD informed of the development.

Detention Review Panel if the flag State or RO disagrees with the outcome of

the appeal, may request a detention review panel from the MoU of the port State within 120 days from release of detained ship;

review panel will comprise of the MoU Secretariat, 3 or 4 Authorities, excluding the port State and flag State;

panel will consider the procedural and technical aspects of inspection based on information from flag State, ROs and port State;

the panel will prepare a summary of opinions to the flag State and/or ROs, and port State may be requested to re-consider its decision;

findings of panel are not binding but may provide justifications for port State to re-consider its decision.

HKMD ask for the cooperation and good works of all companies, shipowners and their onboard staff to operate their ships in a safe, environmental friendly and secure manner. Let’s work together to avoid problems with PSC and maintain our fleet status within the MoUs and US Coastguard.
