Maintenance of condition after survey

25.—(1) The condition of the ship and its equipment shall be maintained so as to conform to the provisions of these Regulations.

(2) After any survey of the ship under regulation 23 has been completed, no change shall be made in the structure, equipment, systems, fittings, arrangements and materials covered by the survey, without the sanction of the Secretary of State, except by direct replacement.

(3) Whenever an accident occurs to a ship or a defect is discovered, either of which substantially affects the integrity of the ship or the efficiency or completeness of the equipment required by these Regulations, the master or owner of the ship shall report at the earliest opportunity to the Secretary of State, who shall, in the case of a United Kingdom ship, determine whether an additional survey is necessary. If the ship is in a port of another state the master or owner shall also report immediately to the appropriate authority of the government of the state in which the port is situated.
