An updated version of the IMO-Vega Database has now been released and is available for purchase. This version has been extended with the release of IMDG Code 2014 (37-14). Further the IGC Code is presented in consolidated versions both for the existing version and the forthcoming version applicable from 2016.
The database contains IMO documents including resolutions from the Assembly 28th session, MEPC committee 66th session and MSC committee 93rd session - and circulars and interpretations up until and including October 2014.
All updated documents are included and consolidated into existing instruments, when relevant (see also new documents in this version on front page). Additionally many of the IMO Instruments have been supplied with internal Contents when the instruments are presented as multiple documents, for easier navigation.
Further the STCW Convention and Code are presented in both the consolidated versions and the previous editions by amendments.
The MLC 2006 from ILO has been amended, the footnotes in all chapters in SOLAS have been updated, and the Advanced Search has been extended with search feasibility on cargo.
