- PASCHAL DONOHOE, Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport. EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.) Commission Directive 2014/93/EU updates the principal Directive 96/98/EC on marine equipment by substituting a new Annex A that sets out the marine equipment to be placed on board ships and the testing standards that apply under the international maritime conventions of the International Maritime Organisation for MARPOL (prevention of pollution), SOLAS (safety at sea), Load Lines and the Collision Regulations. These Regulations amended the European Union (Marine Equipment) Regulations 2014 ( SI No. 540 of 2014 ). They transpose Directive 2014/93/EU with effect from 14 August 2015 and provide that transitional arrangements apply until 14 August 2017 in respect of certain marine equipment that was manufactured before 14 August
