If the ship is not detained and the items raised at a more detailed inspection are
resolved, then after departure from the port the crew and the company would be well
advised to review the event and initiate the necessary amendments to the SMS to ensure
that such a situation does not arise again. Other ships within the fleet should be made
aware as soon as possible after the event and before the amendments are completed to
ensure that the necessary inspections and preventative actions are taken so that they do
not experience a similar situation.
