No. 184/1940.
SINGAPORE-EXAMINATION SERVICE.
On and after September 3rd, 1940, all foreign ships of greater nett tonnage than 75 tons will have their holds and between decks sighted by an officer of the Examination Service before being allowed to leave the Examination Anchorage.
It is expected that a very short time will be occupied by this brief inspection, and if ships will arrive with their hatch covers off when the weather permits, delays will be negligible.
Masters are therefore requested to make the necessary arrangements.
