About this statute

This provision amends section 2 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 1951 by deleting and inserting definitions. This provision amends the definitions in Article 2 of the principal shipping Act, including terms for maritime labour, seafarer, South African ship, and the Work in Fishing Convention. This provision replaces the heading for Chapter IV of the principal Act. This section says that section 91 of the principal Act is replaced with new wording, but the quoted text is cut off here. No person may engage or allow cadets or apprentice-officers to serve on a South African ship above the number allowed by the regulations.
