7 Interpretation
In this Order:
(a) a reference to the date when a ship was built means the date when:
(i) the keel was laid; or
(ii) construction identifiable with the ship has begun and the lesser of at least 50 tonnes, or 1% of the estimated mass of all structural material, of the ship has been assembled; and
(b) a reference to loading or unloading a ship includes a situation in which both loading and unloading is taking place.
Note for paragraph (a) MSC-MEPC.5/Circ 4 gives guidance on the interpretation of the date on which a keel is laid.
