The Load Line (Amendment) Rules, 1948
EXPLANATORY NOTE (This Note is not part of the Rules, but is intended to indicate their general purport.) These Rules replace the Merchant Shipping (Life-saving Appliances) Emergency Rules, 1942, in so far as those Rules made provision for the carriage of life-saving appliances on board ships which carry passengers by virtue only of a certificate issued by the competent authority under Regulation 47BB of the Defence (General) Regulations, 1939.
