PART 3N.I.Information to passengers

Requirement to provide information to passengers at certain timesN.I.

10.[F1(1) Subject to the following provisions of this regulation, an operator must ensure that a passenger who arrives at a port on a relevant service is provided with the information required by regulations 10 and 11 (“the passenger information requirement”) and in the manner required by that regulation at each of the times specified in paragraph (2).]

(ii)within 24 hours prior to departure of the service, at any point prior to departure.]

F4(c). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(d)while the passenger was on board the vessel or aircraft [F5(“the on-board information requirement”)].

[F6(3) If another person (A) makes the booking on behalf of the passenger (whether or not A is also a passenger on the relevant service), the pre-departure information requirement is to be treated as complied with if the required information is provided to A in the required manner before the booking is made, along with a written request that A provide that information to the passenger unless A considers that, by virtue of age or mental capacity, the passenger is unlikely to be capable of understanding it.]

F7(4) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

F8(5) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

(6) An operator who fails to comply with [F9paragraph (1)] is guilty of an offence.

(7) An offence under paragraph (6) is punishable on summary conviction by a fine not exceeding £10,000.

(8) In relation to the requirement to provide the required information at the time set out in [F10paragraph (2)(b)], it is a defence for the purposes of paragraph (6) if the operator can demonstrate that—

(a)the booking or check-in process was not managed directly by the operator; and

(b)the operator took reasonable steps to ensure that the person managing the process would provide the required information at that time and in the required manner.

(9) If, following the coming into operation of any provision which amends the information required to be provided by regulation 11, an operator provides information to a passenger that would have complied with [F11that information] but for the coming into operation of that amending provision, it is a defence for the operator to show that it was not reasonably practicable for the amended information to be provided.

(10) This regulation only applies in respect of a passenger who arrives at a port on a relevant service on a vessel, if the vessel is 24 metres or more in length.
