European Communities (Marine Equipment) (Amendment) Regulations 2013 (S.I. No. 199 of 2013).

These Regulations amend the European Communities (Marine Equipment) Regulations 2009 to transpose Commission Directive 2012/32/EU, which updates the principal Directive 96/98/EC on marine equipment by substituting a new Annex A that sets out the marine equipment to be placed on board ships and the testing standards that apply under the international maritime conventions of the International Maritime Organisation for MARPOL (prevention of pollution), SOLAS (safety at sea), Load Lines and the Collision Regulations.
