that it is possible for existing foreign-going pasenger vessels to carry boat accommoda- tion for all persons for which they are certified.

Several recommendations "are

- made with a view to increasing the stability of pontoon_rafts, buoyant deck seats, and life jackets. The Committee are of opinion that many occasione may arise in which an approved pon-` toon raft of a type they recom- mand will be even more useful than an open lifeboat or decked lifeboat.
