The Slovak Republic as a country with no requests to issue GOC/ROC certificate did not implement the ERC Decision (99)01. In accordance with the GMDSS, we require a training for GOC/ROC certificates in a training centre recognised by IMO to ensure that the personnel of ship stations and ship earth stations are adequately qualified to enable efficient operations on station.
This requirement is defined by the law. |
