# The Offshore Installations (Prevention of Fire and Explosion, and Emergency Response) Regulations 1995, Regulation 22C: Arrangements for early warning of major accidents


(1) This regulation applies only in relation to external waters.
(2) The duty holder must make arrangements—
(a) for providing early warning of a major accident to the Maritime and Coastguard Agency; and
(b) for providing more detailed information about such an accident as soon as it becomes available,
but nothing in this paragraph is to be taken as imposing a requirement which is imposed by regulation 4(3)(c) and paragraph 2(k) of Schedule 2 to the Merchant Shipping (Oil Pollution Preparedness, Response and Co-operation Convention) Regulations 1998 (arrangements for early warning of major environmental incidents).
