Should the corrective action not be conducted to the Surveyor's satisfaction, the later withdraws or invalidates the concerned Statutory certificate.

The Surveyor also advises in writing the Master and/or owner that the Statutory certificate is withdrawn and requires that the certificate be handed to him

The CM shall immediately be advised as well.

► The issuance of a "Short term" certificate with a very short validity may be contemplated with the agreement of the Flag Administration which shall be obtained through the CM, prior to the issuance of the certificate.



3.1 Issuance of Short Term Statutory Certificates

► The recommendations may solely be accepted under particular circumstances and insofar as their acceptance is reasonable and adequate.

► A "Short term" certificate may be denied where numerous recommendations even of minor nature are set out or where a recommendation of a major character results from the survey.

► The Administration does not accept "Short term" certificates (even endorsed with minor recommendations) without their prior agreement that is to be obtained by CM.

► The "Short term" certificate is therefore an exceptional measure and does not stay as a rule. The general rule is that no recommendation remains upon completion of any Statutory survey

► A short term certificate is also issued in case of a renewal survey where minor recommendations could possibly remain.



3.2 Extension of Short Term Statutory Certificates

► A conditional certificate cannot be extended.

► Under exceptional circumstances, it might be renewed but only with prior agreement by the Administration.

► A general inspection must then be performed.
