State: Central

Year: 1917

.....the legislation more effective and useful in regulating the operation of inland vessels having regard to the present day needs. 2. The principal Act was enacted when steam-vessels were in vogue. With the advent of oil-fired vessels, steam-vessels have become scare and even the short title to the Act would be misleading in the present context. Accordingly it is proposed to modify the short title of the Act as "Inland Vessels Act" and to substitute the expression "steam-vessel" by the expression "mechanically propelled vessel". There is no provision now enabling the mortgage of vessels by owners for securing financial assistance for the construction or repair of vessels. Provisions in that regard on the lines of those contained in the Merchant Shipping Act, 195S (44 of 1958)are proposed in order to overcome the difficulty. In the case of wreck, etc., the State Government is authorised to appoint a Court of investigation only on a report to that effect from the master of the vessel.
