Subject: 85th session of the IMO Legal Committee - HNS

Dear colleagues

In preparation for the forthcoming Legal Committee session later this month, and the discussions on the work of the HNS Correspondence Group, please find enclosed for your information the two papers that the UK has submitted to the IMO on this agenda item.

The first paper is the report of the work of the group and its future work <https://rosaeg.no/uio/HNS/5.pdf>. It is intended that this will be discussed on the floor of the Committee. The second paper is an information paper that is an updated version of the paper we circulated to the Correspondence Group on incidents involving the carriage of HNS by Sea <https://rosaeg.no/uio/HNS/INF-2.pdf>. Many thanks, I look forward to seeing you at the IMO later this month. Kind regards

David Baker
