6、ousGoods, Solid Cargoes and Containers at its first session (5 to 9 February1996), and approved the Guidelines presented in this publication, whichwere originally issued as MSC/Circ.745 (dated 13 June 1996).These Guidelines are based on the provisions contained in the annex toMSC/Circ.385 (dated 8 J

7、anuary 1985) but have been expanded to includethe applications explicit to ships which are equipped or adapted for thecarriage of freight containers, taking into account the provisions of theCode of Safe Practice for Cargo Stowage and Securing (CSS Code), asamended. They are of a general nature and

8、intended to provide guidanceon the preparation of Cargo Securing Manuals, which are required on alltypesofshipsengagedinthecarriageofcargoesotherthansolidandliquidbulk cargoes.Member Governments are invited to bringthese Guidelines to theattention of all parties concerned, with the aim of havingCarg

9、o SecuringManuals carried on board ships prepared appropriately and in a consistentmanner, and to implement them as soon as possible and, in any case, notlater than 31 December 1997.
