Foreign ships, which enter ports in the states where MLC 2006 is effective, will be inspected by the relevant authorities in the port in order to verify the conformity with the amendments that have been effective since January 18th<\/sup> of this year, and will have to present certificates or other documentary evidences that confirm the existence and validity of the aforementioned security.<\/p>\nThis kind of regulations is to prevent the repetition of such situations that were experienced in the past. We shall not forget that, in case of abandonment of the ship, the seafarers used to remain on board of the abandoned ship until she was subjected to judicial sale in order to settle the outstanding claims, including unpaid wages of the crew, with the obtained amount.<\/p>\n
