law firm will contain comprehensive collections of the relevant statutes, statutory instruments, international Conventions, and standard shipping documents The object of this publication is to gather together those materials to which reference is most frequently made It is hoped that it will prove useful both to those who not have access to a library and also to those who but would nonetheless value the convenience of a collection which may be kept readily to hand I have had in mind primarily the needs of those who are engaged in the contentious aspects of shipping law These, of course, are not limited to matters relevant only to shipping disputes Materials have therefore been included which are of wider application, such as the Arbitration Act 1996 The principal source not included is case law, the volume and variety of which prohibit the making of a selection which would be useful to practitioners Materials relating to non-contentious matters, such as ship registration, are not included International Conventions are an important source of maritime law, and are numerous The criterion for inclusion in this book is not whether the UK is a party to the relevant Convention, but whether the text is frequently referred to by practitioners For example, the Limitation Conventions of 1957 and 1976 are both included, although the UK is no longer a party to the former Where the Convention is set out in an Act of Parliament, that is the text included here, any variations from the original Convention text being noted in the relevant introduction For example, the Limitation Convention of 1976 is reproduced in Part I of Schedule to the Merchant Shipping Act 1995 In all other cases, the text is that of the Convention itself Certain materials exist in several variants, the principal example being the Hague Rules Some countries have adopted the original Rules, whilst others have given effect to the Visby amendments and, in some cases, the SDR Protocol Others have passed legislation closely based on the Rules (such as the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1936 of the United States) Because of their importance, both the Hague Rules and the Hague-Visby Rules are printed in full; the latter are set out in the Schedule to the Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1971 As this version includes the SDR Protocol amendments, the unamended text appears in the note to Article IV(5), for ease of reference The US Carriage of Goods by Sea Act 1936 is also set out in full; it is sometimes incorporated into bills of lading or charterparties and differs in certain respects (particularly limitation of liability) from the Hague Rules Since it is often necessary to know whether a particular State gives effect to a Convention, iv P R E FA C E the parties to the Conventions are listed Much more detailed information is available in The Ratification of Maritime Conventions, produced by the Institute of Maritime Law and published by Informa A number of standard forms are included Forms which are primarily connected with a particular area appear in the appropriate Part: Lloyd’s Open Form, for example, appears in Part H (Salvage, Towage and General Average) More general forms, such as charterparties, are set out in Part I I am grateful to all those members of the shipping community who were consulted about the selection of materials for this publication In particular, I should like to thank my colleagues at Stephenson Harwood for their comments and suggestions Stephenson Harwood January 2011 MICHAEL BUNDOCK v Outline Contents Acknowledgments Preface Detailed Contents
