Control of access

  22 Control of access by shore based personnel to ships when in port should be regulated under the provisions of the respective PFSP. The circumstances when access to ships through the port facility is restricted, or denied, to owners' representatives, safety inspectors or auditors, maintenance and repair personnel and representatives of seafarers' welfare and labour organizations should be specified in the PFSP and approved by the Contracting Government. In general every effort should be made to facilitate such access unless there are specific security-related reasons specified in the PFSP for not doing so.
