Mess rooms for seafarers who are officers and other seafarers may be separate or common, as appropriate.
21B.9.2 Where the substantially equivalent arrangements in 21B.8.3 and 21B.8.4 are used, the floor area of mess rooms for seafarers should not be less than 1.5 square metres per person of the planned seating capacity.
