国际海事组织制定有关乘客安全的新规则

 
      2012年11月26日至30日，国际海事组织海上安全委员会（MSC）第91届会议在总部伦敦召开，会议审议通过了以下规则：受Costa Concordia事故的启发，船舶出发前或出发之时，强制要求对乘客进行安全演习。
    《国际海上人命安全公约》第三章（救生设施及安排）规定，针对上船时间超过24小时的乘客，登船24小时之内召集其进行安全演习。MSC批准了该规定的修正草案，将其改为出发前或出发之时即进行演习。分发该修正草案征询意见，以期在2013年6月举行的MSC第92届会议上予以采纳，于2014年年底生效。

IMO: New Rules for Passenger Safety

IMO’s Maritime Safety Committee (MSC), meeting at the organization’s London Headquarters for its 91st session from 26 to 30 November 2012, agreed that rules to require passenger safety drills to take place prior to, or immediately upon, departure should be made mandatory, in the wake of the Costa Concordia incident.

The Committee approved draft amendments to chapter III (Life-saving appliances and arrangements) of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) to require musters of newly embarked passengers prior to or immediately upon departure, instead of "within 24 hours", as stated in the current regulations, for a ship engaged on a voyage where passengers are scheduled to be on board for more than 24 hours. The draft amendments will now be circulated for consideration, with a view to adoption, at the next session, MSC 92, in June 2013. They could enter into force at the end of 2014.
