Contracting Governments which have no ships entitled to fly their flag may receive the LRIT information they are entitled to under the provisions of regulation V/19-1 from any of the LRIT Data Centres but should select one LRIT Data Centre from which they wish to receive the information and should provide related information to the Organization.
