As for the certificate to which it relates
*     The Certificate of Survey may be issued in parts corresponding to the areas covered by the Safety Construction, Safety Equipment and Safety Radio certificates 14.2  Commencement of renewal period If an existing certificate is being renewed, the period in column 3 of Table 1 commences: (a)  if the re­newal survey is completed on, or within three months before, the expiry date of the existing certificate from the expiry date of the existing certificate; (b) if the renewal survey is completed after the expiry date of the existing certificate from the expiry date of the existing certificate; (c) if the renewal survey is completed more than three months before the expiry date of the existing certificate from the date of completion of the renewal survey. 14.3  Extension of validity 14.3.1  If a certificate is issued for a period of less than the maximum period specified in Table 1, the Manager, Ship Inspections, may extend the validity of the certificate beyond the expiry date to the maximum period, provided that the surveys referred to in 8, 9 and 10 applicable when a certificate is issued for a period exceeding one year are carried out as appropriate. 14.3.2  If a renewal survey has been completed and a new certificate cannot be issued or placed on board the ship before the expiry date of the existing cer­tificate, the Manager, Ship Inspections, or survey authority, as appropriate, must endorse the existing certificate and such a certificate is to be accepted as valid for a further period which must not exceed 5 months from the expiry date. 14.3.3  If an Australian ship (other than a fishing vessel) at the time when a certificate expires is not in a port in which it is to be surveyed, the Manager, Ship Inspections, or a consul or other diplomatic representative of Australia may extend the period of validity of the certificate but this extension is to be granted only for the purpose of allowing the ship to complete its voyage to the port in which it is to be surveyed, and then only in cases where it appears proper and reasonable to do so. No certificate is to be extended for a period longer than three months, and a ship to which an extension is granted must not, on its arrival in the port in which it is to be surveyed, be entitled by virtue of such extension to leave that port without having a new certificate.  When the renewal survey is completed, the period in column 3 of Table 1 commences from the expiry date of the existing certificate before the extension was granted. 14.3.4  A certificate that has been issued to a fishing vessel, or a ship (other than a fishing vessel) engaged on short voyages, and that has not been extended under 14.3.1, 14.3.3 or 14.3.5 may be extended by the Manager, Ship Inspections, or a consul or other diplomatic representative of Australia for a period of grace of up to one month from the date of expiry stated on it. When the renewal survey is completed, the period in column 3 of Table 1 commences from the expiry date of the existing certificate before the extension was granted. 14.3.5  If an Australian-registered fishing vessel is not in an Australian port when its certificate expires or ceases, the Manager, Ship Inspections, or a consul or other diplomatic representative of Australia may extend the period of validity of the certificate but this extension is to be granted only for the purpose of allowing the vessel to complete its voyage to a port in Australia or to the port in which it is to be surveyed, and then only in cases where it appears proper and reasonable to do so.  No certificate is to be extended for a period longer than three months, and a vessel to which such extension is granted must not, on its first arrival in an Australian port or the port in which it is to be surveyed, be entitled by virtue of such extension to leave such port without having obtained a new certificate. 14.3.6  In special circumstances, as determined by the Manager, Ship Inspections, a new cer­tificate need not be dated from the date of expiry of the existing certificate as required by 14.2(b), 14.3.3 or 14.3.4.  In these special circumstances the period in column 3 of Table 1 commences from the date of completion of the renewal survey.[11] 14.4  Surveys completed before certificate expiry If an annual, intermediate or periodical survey is completed before the period specified in this Part, then: (a)  the anniversary date shown on the relevant certificate is to be amended by endorsement to a date which must not be more than three months later than the date on which the survey was completed; (b) the subsequent annual, intermediate or periodical survey required by this Part must be completed at the intervals prescribed by this Part using the new anniversary date; (c) the expiry date may remain unchanged provided one or more annual, intermediate or periodical surveys, as appropriate, are carried out so that the maximum intervals between the surveys specified in this Part are not exceeded. 14.5  Certificate ceasing to be valid A certificate ceases to be valid in any of the following cases:[12] (a)  if the relevant surveys and inspections are not completed within the periods specified in this Part; (b) if the certificate is not endorsed in accordance with this Part; (c) upon transfer of the ship to the Australian flag. 14.6  Issue, endorsement etc of certificates Except where specifically provided for in the Navigation Act or a Part of Marine Orders, a certificate is to be issued, endorsed, extended or otherwise dealt with by a surveyor.

      ***********

[1]     The current text of Chapter I is to be found in SOLAS Consolidated Edition, 2004.
[2]     The following survey authorities are approved: American Bureau of Shipping; Bureau Veritas; Det Norske Veritas; Germanischer Lloyd; Lloyd's Register; and Nippon Kaiji Kyokai. Other survey authorities may be approved if they meet AMSA’s approval criteria.
[3]     Contact addresses of  AMSA offices are available on the AMSA website at http://www.amsa.gov.au.
[4]     A radio message transmitted by INMARSAT-C or HF DSC, addressed to and received by the Manager, Ship Inspections, through Rescue Coordination Centre (RCC) Australia, is considered to be written notice.
[5]     The Manager, Ship Inspections, will only permit  inspections of the outside of a ship's bottom to be carried out while the ship is afloat if  the surveyor is using video equipment operated in-water by a diving contractor with underwater hull inspection skills and experience acceptable to the Manager, Ship Inspections.  The underwater hull must be marked in such a manner as to enable the location of the diver and underwater camera to be readily identified, by frame and strake.  The markings must be verified at the intervening dry dockings or slippings and found to be satisfactory.
[6]     The Manager, Ship Inspections, will specify the appropriate procedures for an unclassed ship on application by the owner.
[7]     The Manager, Ship Inspections, will only permit  inspections of the outside of a ship's bottom to be carried out while the ship is afloat if  the surveyor is using video equipment operated in-water by a diving contractor with underwater hull inspection skills and experience acceptable to the Manager, Ship Inspections.  The underwater hull must be marked in such a manner as to enable the location of the diver and underwater camera to be readily identified, by frame and strake.  The markings must be verified at the intervening dry dockings or slippings and found to be satisfactory.
[8]     The intermediate surveys are intended, among other things, to ensure that alterations have not been made that would adversely affect the safety of the vessel or the crew.
[9]     Section 210 of the Navigation Act provides for the  detention of a ship that is not seaworthy. In the case of an Australian ship, AMSA may cancel the certificates of a ship that does not comply with the Navigation Act, Marine Orders and Regulation 11 of Chapter I of SOLAS.
[10]    The report should be made to the Manager, Ship Inspections, through Rescue Coordination Centre (RCC) Australia.  Two forms are available from AMSA: Form AMSA 18, which is an Incident Alert form, and AMSA 19, which is an Incident Report form.       If the ship is in a port outside Australia, the master must, in addition to reporting to the Manager, Ship Inspections, report the happening to the appropriate authority of the country in which the port is situated.       If one or more of the certificates relating to a ship in respect of which a report has been made under section 268 of the Navigation Act were issued by a survey authority, a report in similar terms must also be made to that survey authority.
[11]    "Special circumstances" might include a situation where a ship is laid up at the time the survey is due and remains laid up for a period of 6 months or more.
[12]    A new certificate will not be issued until AMSA or a survey authority, as appropriate, is fully satisfied that the ship is in compliance with the requirements of the Navigation Act and Marine Orders.
[13]    The application should be sent to the survey office at or nearest the port at which the survey is required.  If a survey is required at a port outside Australia, the application should be sent to the Manager, Ship Inspections.
[14]    Details of the plans, information and data required to accompany applications may be obtained from any AMSA survey office.
