Maritime Transport Act 1994

Construction, survey, and equipment - Special provisions relating to barges

153: Certificates of completion required for certain barges

You could also call this:

"Some barges no longer need a special certificate, as this rule was stopped in 1998."

A law called the Maritime Transport Act 1994 has a part about barges. You need to know that a rule about certificates for some barges was repealed. This means the rule is no longer in use, it was repealed on 2 February 1998 by section 187.

The rule used to be called section 153, but it is not a rule anymore. It actually stopped being a rule on 1 February 1998, and then it was officially repealed the next day. This change was made by section 187.
