This question was answered on 8th September 2022
The regulations are kept under continuous review, but in particular, implementing the Merchant Shipping (Maritime Labour Convention) (Medical Certification) Regulations, 2010, provided the opportunity for a review of the process to ensure compliance with the international Conventions. Further amendments were made in 2018. A statutory post-implementation review is currently underway, due for publication in due course.
