This is the original version (as it was originally enacted).
(1)This section applies to a ship if for the time being—
(a)the ship is—
(i)registered in the United Kingdom, and
(ii)in the service of a government department (including a Northern Ireland department) (“the relevant department”) by reason of a charter by demise to the Crown; and
(b)there is in force under section 308(2) an Order in Council providing for the registration of Government ships in the service of the relevant department.
(2)Where this section applies to any ship, the following statutory provisions, namely—
(a)the provisions of the Order in Council referred to in subsection (1)(b) above (excluding those relating to registration under the Order), and
(b)the provisions of this Act (as they apply by virtue of section 308(2) and that Order in Council),
shall (subject to subsections (3) and (4) below) have the same effect in relation to that ship as they have in relation to a Government ship in the service of the relevant department (whether referred to as such or as such a ship registered in pursuance of that Order in Council).
(3)Subject to subsection (4) below, Part II shall have effect in relation to a ship to which this section applies in like manner as if it were not, for the purposes of this Act, a ship belonging to Her Majesty.
(4)Her Majesty may by Order in Council provide that any statutory provision falling within subsection (2) or (3) above and specified in the Order—
(a)shall not have effect in accordance with that subsection in relation to a ship to which this section applies, or
(b)shall so have effect in relation to such a ship, but subject to such modifications as are specified in the Order.
(5)In the application of any provision of this Act (other than a provision of Part II) in relation to a ship to which this section applies, any reference to the owner of the ship shall be construed as a reference to the relevant department.
(6)An Order in Council under this section may make such transitional, incidental or supplementary provision as appears to Her Majesty to be necessary or expedient.
