Post trip procedures

(1) All vessels to be observed shall be provided with a document detailing the respective duties and responsibilities of the vessel and of the observer. The vessel shall be advised of its obligation for the safety of the observer while on board the vessel. This shall be prescribed in the MoU referred to in regulation 21(2). (2) All vessel operators shall provide reasonable advance notification of the vessel’s estimated date of return to port. This should be a minimum of 96 hours or four working days so as to provide sufficient time to make arrangements for the observers to embark or disembark.
