Lifeboat and evacuation drills and exercises

  25 Lifeboat and evacuation drills and exercises are essential to the safe operation of the ship and are most safely undertaken when a ship is in port. If such drills or exercises are planned when the ship is in port, the arrangements to allow them to be undertaken should be agreed in advance by the ship, the PFSO or control authorities. There should be a presumption that such drills or exercises will be facilitated unless a specific security threat exists.
