IMO suggests pragmatic and practical approach on STCW

摘要

The international Maritime Organization (IMO) has issued advice on action to be taken in cases where not all seafarers carry certificates and endorsements, meeting the 2010 Manila amendments to the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW) and the STCW Code from 1 January 2017. In November 2016, IMO's Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) expressed concern about the implementation of the 2010 Manila amendments in light of the imminent end, on 1 January 2017, of the transitional provisions laid down in the STCW Convention, Regulation I/15.
