Panama Maritime Authority (PMA) issued Marine Notice MMN-01/2024 and announced new ASI questionaries regarding Concentrated Inspection Campaign about MLC.
The purpose of this new ASI questionnaire is to determine the level of compliance with the MLC, in order to prepare the ships for the Port State Control Concentrate Inspection Campaign, which will be held from September 1st until November 31st of 2024.
The Flag State Inspectors shall perform this additional survey based on the mentioned questionnaire, during the Annual Safety Inspection (ASI) from March 01st to August 31st of 2024.
It is emphasized that at all times that this questionnaire is a complement to the safety inspection and should not affect the development of the ASI. However, if any observation related to the MLC is found at the time of inspection; flag inspectors must take note and immediately notify the vessel’s captain and Flag Inspection Section of the Navigation and Maritime Safety Department, about the appropriate corrective measures and preventive action plan taken by the vessel’s company in order to avoid future recurrences.
Please refer the Marine Notice for more detail.
