27.6 Appeal Against the Findings of an Examination

 If an owner/managing agent or competent harbour authority is dissatisfied with the findings of an examination and agreement can not be reached with the authorised person who carried out the examination, the owner/managing agent or competent harbour authority may appeal to the Certifying Authority to review the findings. At this review, the owner/managing agent or competent harbour authority may call a representative or professional adviser to give opinions in support of the argument against the findings of the examination.

Should the above procedures fail to resolve the disagreement, the owner/managing agent or competent harbour authority may refer the disagreement to the Director of Standards Division of the MCA.
