The following proposed system of rules was presented to the Collision Regulations Working Party of the Institute by Admiral García-Frías and is referred to in the January issue of the Journal (24, 56–9).

IT is evident that the revision of the Collision Regulations would only be effective with a system of Rules able to cope with all situations that may arise at sea. The system must include all that it is necessary and sufficient to solve the collision problem in the easiest and most effective way and consequently it must apply both in clear weather and in restricted visibility using radar; differences between these situations being defined, if necessary, in every Rule.
