 12.1 Where these Guidelines require that a particular fitting, material, appliance or apparatus, or type thereof, should be fitted or carried in a craft, or that any particular provision should be made, the Administration may allow any other fitting, material, appliance or apparatus, or type thereof, to be fitted or carried, or any other provision to be made in the craft, if it is satisfied by trial thereof or otherwise that such fitting, material, appliance or apparatus, or type thereof, or provision, is at least as effective as that required by these Guidelines.

 12.2 Where compliance with any of the provisions of these Guidelines would be impractical for reasons of the particular design of the craft, the Administration may substitute those with alternative provisions, provided that equivalent safety is achieved. The Administration which allows any such substitution should communicate to the Organization particulars of these substitutions and the reasons for their acceptance, which the Organization should circulate to its Member Governments for information.
