OFFICER'S LIABILITY IN COLLISION CASES
The draft convention on crim- inal jurisdiction, in cases of col Usion at sea which is being placed before the conference of the In ternational Maritime Committee contains a clause which is of special moment to ships' person- nel. The passage runs:
J
"In the event of a collision oc- curing within the territorial waters of a contracting State, the master of the ship, or any other person in the service of the“ vés- sel, may be prosecuted by reason of such collision before the penal courts of that State." Since the subject is of great concern to the officers organisations, it has for some time past been under ✅ the
· joint' consideration of those bod- leo amilisted with the National Maritime Board, and represent- ing thereon the interests of the masters and navigation, and "en- gineer officera of British Mēr- chant ships. They include the Impérial Merchant Bervice Guild, Mercantile Marine Bervice · Asso- ciation, Marine Engineers' Assos tiation, Limited, and the | Amgi, gamated Engineering Union, re- presenting, in all, over twenty thousand officers of the British Merchant Navy They have agreed that the convention is op- posed to the best interests of those for whom they stand, and they far from approve of, any conven- tion" which ́establishes the prin- ciple, internationally, of criminal prosecutions of the responsible officers of merchant ships in cases where their ships have been în collision:-(From the Byren ma Shipping, London),;
