As previously announced in this article, the amendment to the MLC Convention in 2022 will come into force on December 23, 2024.
Class NK has issued a technical information TEC-1327 regarding this matter, which I would like to introduce. According to TEC-1327, no specific instructions regarding the 2022 amendment have been issued by the major flag states at this time. It is recommended to check the content of various manuals on ships to ensure that there are no conflicting statements with the 2022 amendment.
Furthermore, although it is before the effective date of this amendment, the Tokyo MOU and Paris MOU joint PSC concentration campaign scheduled for September 2024 will focus on the MLC.
//Update on 4 July//
Panama Maritime Authority issued Marine Notice MMN06-2024 as attached. In this notice, Panama Maritime Authority request Recognized Organizations to review compliance with these amendments, at the time of carrying out the interim, initial, intermediate or renewal audits, as of its entry into force.
