Recommendation 30: Whether to censure others than certificated officers

From Marchioness/Bowbelle: Formal Investigation under the Merchant Shipping Act 1995, Volume I, published 23 March 2001.

Recommendation

Finally we recommend that consideration be given to whether it is appropriate to censure persons or entities other than certificated officers and, if so why, what the test should be and whether (as we think) it would be necessary to amend the 1995 Act in order to confer a power to censure.
