Subdivision 2.2 Non-SOLAS certificates

15 Application of subdivision
        This subdivision applies to a vessel that is:
       (a)   a passenger vessel; or
       (b)   a cargo vessel >10 m in length.

16 Non-SOLAS certificates required
       (1) A regulated Australian vessel must have a safety certificate specified in Schedule 2 if the vessel is not required under this Marine Order to be issued a certificate specified in Schedule 1 in accordance with Regulation 12 of Chapter I, or Regulation 10 of Chapter VIII, of SOLAS.
       (2) However, a regulated Australian vessel that is a cargo vessel <500GT must have a certificate mentioned in Schedule 2 unless the vessel has a Certificate of Survey for a Yacht or Training Vessel.
Note   A cargo vessel >300 GT must have a Cargo Ship Safety Radio Certificate — see section 7.
       (3) A certificate specified in Schedule 2 is a safety certificate and is also known as a non-SOLAS certificate.
Note   For government vessels, reference should be made to the AMSA website at http://www.amsa.gov.au to ascertain if any exemption has been granted from the requirements of this Marine Order.

17 Applying for non-SOLAS certificates
       (1) For subsection 99(1) of the Navigation Act, a non-SOLAS certificate is specified as a safety certificate for which a person may apply.
 (2) For subsection 99(2) of the Navigation Act, Division 3 of Marine Order 1 (Administration) 2013 (other than section 17) applies to an application to AMSA for a non-SOLAS certificate.
Note 1    An issuing body may issue a safety certificate under section 100 of the Navigation Act.
Note 2   Division 3 of Marine Order 1 (Administration) 2013 prescribes some general rules about the making and determination of various kinds of applications. Section 17 of that Marine Order provides for internal review of decisions about applications. That section does not apply to decisions about safety certificates because those decisions are reviewable by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal — see subsection 313(1) of the Navigation Act.

18 Criteria for issue of non-SOLAS certificates
        For paragraph 100(1)(b) of the Navigation Act, the criteria for the issue of a non-SOLAS certificate are:
(a) those mentioned for the kind of certificate specified in Schedule 2; and
(b) for a cargo vessel >300 GT — it has a Cargo Ship Safety Radio Certificate; and
(c) if the vessel has an arrangement with a classification society for survey and inspection — the vessel has a valid certificate of classification; and
(d) if
