Royal Fleet Auxiliary
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, if he will make an assessment of the adequacy of the binding merchant shipping Statutory Instruments applicable under the MoD Ships Order in Council, listed in Annex A1 of the Regulations for Royal Fleet Auxiliaries BRd 875.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The binding merchant shipping statutory instruments applicable under the Minstry of Defence Ships Order in Council, are reviewed on a regular basis by the Royal Fleet Auxiliary (RFA). This is part of ensuring the RFA’s Safety Management Systems continuous compliance with updated international and statutory regulations. Ongoing compliance is additionally monitored externally by the MCA as part of the annual Document of Compliance (DOC) audit process.
