The Maritime Safety Committee

 The Maritime Safety Committee, at its sixty-sixth session (28 May to 6 June 1996), and the Marine Environment Protection Committee, at its thirty-eighth session (1 to 10 July 1996), considered the problems faced by companies operating multi-flagged fleets when implementing the ISM Code and agreed there was a need for guidance to Administrations and companies in view of the fact that such companies must, under the terms of the SOLAS Convention, have a document of compliance issued by the Administration, an organisation recognized by the Administration or at the request of the Administration by another contracting Government.

Accordingly, the Committees prepared the annexed guidance and invited Member Governments to bring it to the attention of their maritime Administrations and relevant industry organizations.
