8.—(1) Without prejudice to the provisions of the Merchant Shipping (Medical Examination) Regulations 1983(1) and subject to paragraphs (2) and (3), no young person shall be engaged as a worker in any capacity in a ship unless there has been delivered to the master of the ship a certificate granted by a duly qualified medical practitioner certifying that the young person is fit to be engaged in that capacity.
In this paragraph, “duly qualified medical practitioner” means a person who is a fully registered person within the meaning of section 55 of the Medical Act 1983(2) [F1who holds a licence to practise].
(2) Paragraph (1) shall not apply in the case of engagement as a worker in a ship in which only members of the same family are employed.
(3) A superintendent or consular officer may on the ground of urgency authorise a young person to be engaged as a worker in a ship to which the Merchant Shipping (Medical Examination) Regulations 1983 do not apply, notwithstanding that no such certificate has been delivered to the master of the ship; but the young person shall not be engaged as a worker in reliance on any such authorisation beyond the first port at which the ship calls after he has embarked thereon.
(4) A certificate shall be effective for the purposes of this regulation for a period of twelve months from the date on which it is granted and no longer, but if the period of twelve months expires during a voyage in which the young person is engaged as a worker in the ship, the certificate shall remain effective until the next port of call where there is a duly qualified medical practitioner.
