3.1.1 COMPANY'S AND VESSEL'S EMERGENCY CONTINGENCY PLAN

When an incident occurs, the Master and his/her officers should always refer to the Company’s Emergency Contingency Plan as required by the ISM Code. This Emergency Contingency Plan may have a different name under the safety management system implemented by the Company and the vessel. Such a plan should contain the Company’s and the vessel’s effective response to potential emergency situations.

When reporting to the Company following an incident, there may be forms in existence which most probably differ from those set out in this Part.
