12 Cargo ships of gross tonnage of 300 and above but of less than 500

  12.1 Cargo ships whose gross tonnage is 300 and above but of less than 500 are not required to hold a valid Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate and thus there is no Record of Equipment for the Cargo Ship Safety Equipment Certificate (Form E) which could be endorsed so as to attest their compliance with the obligation to transmit LRIT information.

  12.2 The compliance of the aforesaid cargo ships with the obligation to transmit LRIT information should be documented:

  • .1 in case they are issued with a Cargo Ship Safety Certificate, by completing the relevant entry in section 5 of the Record of Equipment for the Cargo Ship Safety Certificate (Form C) and having on board a valid Conformance test report; or

  • .2 in case they are not issued with a Cargo Ship Safety Certificate, by having on board a valid Conformance test report.

  12.3 Neither the Cargo Ship Safety Radio Certificate nor the Record of Equipment for the Cargo Ship Safety Radio Certificate (Form R) should be amended in any way to document their compliance with the obligation to transmit LRIT information as any such amendment does not attest compliance of the ship concerned with the obligation to transmit LRIT information.
