The Merchant Shipping (Safe Loading and Unloading of Bulk Carriers) Regulations 2003
These Regulations implement in the United Kingdom Directive 2001/96/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 December 2001 (establishing the harmonised requirements and procedures for the safe loading and unloading of bulk carriers). They also implement Directive 2002/84/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 November 2002 (amending the Directives on maritime safety and the prevention of pollution from ships), in so far as that Directive relates to the 2001 Directive.
