  • Dear Consultee PUBLIC CONSULTATION on THE
    Dear Consultee PUBLIC CONSULTATION ON THE PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE DOMESTIC SAFETY MANAGEMENT REGIME Introduction In 2001 Domestic Safety Management (DSM) was introduced by the Merchant Shipping (Domestic Passenger Ships) (Safety Management Code) Regulations 2001 (Statutory Instrument, SI 2001/3209). The DSM Code requires operators of domestic passenger ships to have a safety management system tailored to their specific operations. This safety management system should include: A health and safety policy Procedures to ensure the safe operation of ships with relevant duties Lines of communication between personnel ashore and afloat Procedures for reporting accidents Procedures for responding to emergency situations The DSM Code was developed to establish a common standard for the safe operation of passenger ships engaged on domestic (operating only in UK waters) trade and it applies to ships of Classes III, IV, V, VI and VI(A)1 and those certified under the Merchant Shipping (Passenger Ships) (Safety Code for UK Categorised Waters) Regulations 20102 (SI 2010/680). The objectives of safety management require the shipping company to apply simple and cost effect means of ensuring safety on board ships; preventing human injury and loss of life; and complying with applicable regulations and rules. No two ship operations are the same, and ships vary significantly in size and are employed under a wide range of different locations and conditions. The general principles to the safe operation of ships are consistent however, and can be expressed in such terms that they can be applied to a wide variety of ships.
