IC: "Ambassador, we generally support this proposal. I'd ask for clarification, though - under what situations might a non-military vessel not be required to display the ITSC hazard symbols on its cargo? Certainly anything in international waters is by definition transporting its payload across borders, no?"

OOC: I won't bring the Tikrr into this at least yet, but limiting this to pictures may have issues, especially if it relies on colours (colourblind people exist in RL too).
Kenmoria wrote:"In the concerned clause, the proposal states “by nation or even region”. In this instance, I suggest replacing “region” with “province”, since one reading of region could be a supranational region covering most of a continent, which would make little sense to be an “or even” situation, whereas another could refer to a segment of a nation, which I believe is the intended meaning."

...so are the labels going to be on the goods or the vessels?
Charges the ITSC with the responsibility of periodically reviewing the aforementioned labeling system and standards for modernization or other improvements;
And they'll pay for changing the labels on everything if they make these changes often?
Mandates nations adhere to the ITSC's guidelines when transporting hazardous materials across international lines, except where compliance interferes with national security;
And these "guidelines" would be what exactly? Labeling system/standards =/= guidelines. Also, "international lines" should probably be "international borders" or some other wording. You're probably thinking about shipping lines, but it doesn't come out like that.
Urges vessels also adhere to the ITSC labeling guidelines for the transportation hazardous materials in non-mandated situations;
And what would these non-mandated situations include? Can you give an example of how labeling dangerous goods might interfere with national security?
[/quote]Recommends member states provide ITSC disseminated training materials to relevant professionals and other interested parties;
If ITSC disseminates them, wouldn't that mean the member states won't have to? Or do you mean that ITSC just makes them and hands to member states? Given the preamble talking about first responders to an accident scene, shouldn't they be required to actually know what the labels mean, rather than trusting on them voluntarily looking things up?Suggests the display of ITSC recommended labels in areas used for the long term storage of hazardous goods.
They're hardly recommended labels if they're required.
