Résumé

These Regulations make provision with respect to insurance and other guarantee arrangements in relation with civil liability of ship-owners for oil polluting events at sea. Each of the kinds of guarantees specified in regulation 4 are acceptable for the purposes of paragraph 3 of Article V of the Convention on Civil Liability for Oil Polluting Damage. An insurance certificate issued, for the purposes of Article VII of the Convention, by or under the authority of the Government of a country to which the Civil Liability Convention applies in respect of a ship registered in a country that is not a country to which the Civil Liability Convention applies, being a certificate issued on behalf of the Government of that last-mentioned country, shall be taken to be a relevant insurance certificate in respect of that ship for the purposes of paragraph 15 (7) (c) of the Act. For the purposes of paragraph 16 (2) (a) of the Act, the form set out in Schedule 1 is prescribed 8. For the purposes of paragraph 16 (4) (a) of the Act, the form set out in Schedule 2 is prescribed. Regulation 10 concerns limits of ship-owner's liability under sub-section 20 (3) of the Act.
