(b) The above scale is for 12 months. For 6 months six-twelfths of the fee will be charged, for 9 months nine-twelfths, and so on, at the rate of one-twelfth for each month; but no fee is to be less in amount than three-twelfths. In all cases of new steamships, or of steamships coming under survey for a Passenger Certificate for the first time a full 12 months' fee must be paid, notwithstanding that a certificate for 12 months may not be required, and in no case of an incomplete declaration will less than three-twelfths be charged.
(c) The fee paid in accordance with the foregoing scale covers any number of visits that a Surveyor may require to make before he is able to grant his declaration, as well as the inspection of the lights and fog-signals, and of the marking of the vessel, which inspection must be made by the Surveyor before he can grant his declaration. The fee does not, however, apply to or include any inspection of lights, fog-signals or marking made subsequently to the granting of the declaration.
(d) The above fee does not cover any service under the Chinese Passengers Act, 1855, or the Chinese Emigration Ordinance, 1889, or measurement for tonnage.
