International Maritime Organization Foreword At its fifty-sixth session (24-28 October 1988), the Maritime Safety Committee (MSC) agreed to the development of an index of valid technical guidelines and recommendations adopted by the Organization and invited all sub-committees to review IMO resolutions and circulars to identify those documents containing guidelines and recommendations relating to maritime safety which were currently valid and useful to Administrations, industry or seafarers and to prepare an index of items within the field of their competence The MSC also considered that other committees of the Organization should be invited to take similar action with respect to guidelines and recommendations within their field of responsibility, in order that a comprehensive index covering all guidelines and recommendations adopted by the Organization could eventually be prepared The present Comprehensive Index of Valid Technical Guidelines and Recommendations brings the previous edition (1992) up to date to May 1998 The breakdown and numbering of subject headings follows, as much as possible, the same breakdown and numbering used in the full index of IMO Resolutions, with the exception of a few additional headings that have been included to reflect new topics that are now being dealt with by IMO Notes The following new subject headings have been added: 4.016 Authorization of recognized organizations acting on behalf of maritime administrations 4.071 Hydrofoils 4.125 ISM Code 4.134 Stowage 8.01 General 8.02 Ship/Port and air-cushion and securing vehicles of cargo interface The following subject heading has been modified to a more significant wording: 4.101 Distress and safety measures III The following subject heading has been absorbed by an existing subject heading: 4.133 Grain cargoes absorbed by 4.132 Solid bulk cargoes Each resolution is normally classified under only one subject heading When a resolution relates to more than one subject the choice has generally been made of the most significant heading under which to classify it When, however this was not convenient the resolution was included in the relevant main subject headings covered by it IV Contents MARITIME SAFETY 4.01 General 4.011 Survey and certification 4.012 Port State control 4.013 Marine casualties 4.014 Relations between Governments, shipowners and masters 4.015
