under SOLAS 90.’

(c) Point 1 is replaced by the following:

‘1. In addition to the requirements of Regulation II-1/B/8 of the SOLAS Convention relating to watertight subdivision and stability in damaged

condition, the requirements of this section shall be complied with.’;

(d) Point 3.1 is replaced by the following:

The requirements of SOLAS 2020, Chapter II-1 Part B shall be complied with. However, by way of derogation from SOLAS 2020, Regulation II-1/B/6.2.3, the

required subdivision index R shall be determined as follows:

Persons on board (N) Subdivision Index (R)

N < 1000 R = 0.000088*N + 0.7488

1000 ≤ 𝑁 ≤ 1350 R = 0.0369 ∗ ln (N + 89.048) + 0.579

Where:

N = total number of persons on board.’

• 2. 

  Annex II is amended as follows:

The introductory paragraph in “Application” is replaced by the following:
