Introduction

 The requirements relevant to the safe return to port for passenger ships, as contained in resolution MSC.216(82), entering into force on 1 July 2010, have been shown to be challenging.

 These Interim Explanatory Notes have been developed in the light of the experience gained so far in the early application of the aforementioned requirements, taking into account the guidance contained in the Performance standards for the systems and services to remain operational on passenger ships for safe return to port and orderly evacuation and abandonment after a casualty (MSC.1/Circ.1214).
