                           Party may cause a ship to be surveyed and, if satisfied that the provisions
                           of this Convention are complied with, shall issue or authorize the
                           issuance of a Certificate to the ship, and where appropriate, endorse
                           or authorize the endorsement of that Certificate on the ship, in accordance
                           with this Annex.
                        
                        
                        
                      
                     
                     
                     
                        
                        
                         
                           2 A copy of the Certificate and a copy of the
                           survey report shall be transmitted as soon as possible to the requesting

                           and it shall have the same force and receive the same recognition
                           as a Certificate issued by the Administration.

                           to fly the flag of a State which is not a Party.
