Explanatory note

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations revoke the Merchant Shipping (Carriage of Nautical Publications) Rules 1975 and omit rule 70 and Schedule 25 of the Fishing Vessels (Safety Provisions) Rules 1975. They replace them with safety Regulations requiring the carriage of up-to-date charts and other nautical publications necessary for the intended voyage and operation.
