If you are a seafarer and you break the law by having too much alcohol in your system, you might have to get a blood test. You will have to pay for the blood test and any other medical expenses that come with it if you are found guilty of breaking the law under section 40C(2). The medical expenses you have to pay will not be more than what it actually costs to take a blood sample.

You have to pay these costs because they are treated like a fine when you are found guilty. The costs are decided based on how much the blood test and other medical expenses cost on the day you broke the law. These costs are only for the actual and reasonable expenses of taking a blood sample.
