Mandat From DE 53/ Summarizing the discussion, the Chairman pointed out that:.1 all of the documents submitted had received support;.2 there had been overwhelming support to develop a risk-based Code with functional requirements supported by prescriptive provisions;.3 the Code should contain both mandatory and recommendatory parts and that, apart from common requirements, there should also be separate requirements for Arctic and Antarctic;.4 the Code would apply in polar waters only and ships not trading in polar regions would not need to comply with its requirements;.5 the Code should be made mandatory under SOLAS and/or MARPOL; and.6 the outcome of the discussion and the action taken by the Sub- Committee would be reported to the MSC and the MEPC. 15
