3.1 ISPS Code, section
A/9.4.7, states that the ship security plan shall address the
“duties of shipboard personnel assigned security responsibilities
and of other shipboard personnel on security aspects”.
ISPS Code, section A/13.3
and paragraph B/13.3, make
reference to “shipboard personnel having specific security
duties and responsibilities” and ISPS Code paragraph B/13.4 makes reference,
in relation to ISPS Code, paragraph
B/13.3, to “all other shipboard personnel”.
3.2 As a result this Guidance uses the
expression shipboard personnel “with designated security
duties” to denote those having specific security duties and
responsibilities in accordance with the ship security plan. The
expression shipboard personnel “without designated security
duties” is used to denote all other shipboard personnel.
