Recital 5
(5) To further simplify the definitions of sea areas provided for by Directive 2009/45/EC and to minimise the disturbances for Member States, the redundant or inadequate criteria should be removed. While maintaining the safety level, the definition of sea areas in which ships of Class C and D may operate should be simplified by removing the criterion of 'where the shipwrecked persons can land' and by removing the 'distance to the place of refuge' for the purpose of defining the sea areas. The appropriateness of a particular coastline as a place of refuge is a dynamic parameter that should be assessed on a case by case basis by the Member States concerned and, where necessary, any operational restrictions related to the distance from a place of refuge for a particular ship should be noted in the Passenger Ship Safety Certificate.
