Details

The MCA has been engaged on a project to update the systems used to manage and record their survey and inspection activities. The new system, named PELORUS, provides a means to issue electronic certificates which will remove the need for UK vessels to hold signed paper copies of the statutory certificates issued by the MCA.

This MIN expires 31st December 2020.
