6.1 General

  6.1.1 Contracting Governments are not required to recognize the Communication Service Provider(s) (CSPs) or to communicate to the Organization any information relating to the CSPs which are handling the LRIT information transmitted by ships entitled to fly their flag.

  6.1.2 Contracting Government should note that although the provisions of the Revised performance standards do not expressly state so, as the CSPs provide the communication services which link the shipborne equipment transmitting LRIT information with the ASPs, the CSPs need to be able to interface with the system used by the ASPs in providing the required services and thus is a matter to be decided by the ASPs.
