In the case of ships required to carry Scale I items, the items to be carried are those in Scale IA provided that the number of persons on board does not exceed 30. When more than 30 persons are carried, then in addition to the items required under Scale IA, 1 set of each of the items listed in Scale IB must be carried for each additional 30 persons or part thereof but it will not be necessary to carry more than Scale IA plus twice Scale IB-which is adequate for 99 persons. Ships with greater complements must carry a medical practitioner who may require such additional supplies as he considers necessary. 2. Where an item is in a bottle, container, tube, ampoule, etc. of a given capacity, the bottle, container, tube, ampoule, etc. shall contain that capacity of the item unless otherwise stated in the scales. The use of the word "ampoule" should not be taken to exclude the use of pre-filled syringes where available and preferred. 3. The quantity of any items to be included in the First Aid Box or Satchel in Scale I is in addition to the quantity for the same items required to be carried in the ship's appropriate scale. Similarly where a ship is required to carry items of Scale I and also of Scale III and/or IV, the items in Scale III and IV are in addition to those in the ship's basic scale.

(Enacted 1996) Cap 478X Sched 2 ADDITIONAL ITEMS REQUIRED ON SHIPS CARRYING CHEMICALS AS WHOLE OR PART OF CARGO [sections 5, 6(3)(a), 8(1)(a) & 11] 1. When a ship is carrying a chemical (in quantities in excess of those defined in Volume 1, Section 18 of the IMDG Code) as whole or part of the cargo the master must ensure that the correct antidote to the chemical (plus the necessary ancillary equipment, e.g. syringes) is carried. 2. The correct antidote can be identified from the following table. The table numbers shown at the top of each column relate to the tables in the IMO Medical First Aid Guide (MFAG). 3. The IMO MFAG has been adopted in place of the Chemical Supplement to the SCMG and the following points should be noted- (a) where Ampicillin is recommended by the MFAG Amoxycillin should be used instead. (b) Methylene Blue has not been included and Ascorbic Acid should be used as an alternative.

11] 1. No medication can be guaranteed to protect against malaria in every instance. Chloroquine is regarded as the most generally effective drug for this purpose. Even in some areas of the world where strains of malarial parasites are developing which can resist its effect chloroquine remains an effective preventative when used in conjunction with other tablets. 2. Although the overall area of the world in which there is a risk of malaria changes only slowly, the chloroquine-resistant strains are spreading quite rapidly and it will be necessary to revise this Schedule from time to time. It must be stressed that advice from a competent local source should be followed in preference to this Schedule when the former is available. 3. Although "Fransidar" is included in the medical scale (Scale I only), it has dangerous side-effects and is only to be used under very specific medical instructions when treating a case of malaria. It should not be used as a routine preventative drug. 4. The preventative doses of anti-malarial drugs should start one week before reaching such a port. Vessels regularly trading in such areas will have established their own regimes but masters of ships bound for malarial areas should ensure that anti-malarial tablet treatment is started 7 days before arrival at the first port, using the map which forms part of this Schedule. 5. Anti-malarial tablet treatment varies geographically depending on the nature and resistance of local malarial germs. (a) Areas where chloroquine resistance has not been reported: 2 chloroquine tablets weekly or 2 proguanil tablets daily. (b) Areas where chloroquine resistance is not yet widespread and predominantly low grade (e.g. East Africa and the Indian subcontinent): 2 chloroquine tablets weekly together with 2 proguanil tablets daily. (c) Areas where chloroquine resistance is widespread (e.g. South America, South East Asia (except the Indian subcontinent) and the Pacific Islands): One maloprim tablet weekly together with 2 chloroquine tablets weekly.Treatment should be continued for 6 weeks after leaving a malarial area. The development of fever either in a malarial area or after leaving a malarial area requires medical advice as soon as possible. Cap 478X Sched 4 DISINFECTANTS AND INSECTICIDES [sections 5, 6(3)(f) & (h) & 11] PART 1 Specification of Disinfectants 1. General description-The disinfectant shall be a white fluid and shall be a finely dispersed, stabilised emulsion containing coal-tar acids or other phenolic bodies, with or without hydrocarbons. 2. Germicidal value and the method of its determination-The germicidal value shall not be less than 1.7 when determined by the modified Chick-Martin method as laid down by the British Standards Specification No. 808, confirmed by PD 2627, 1960. 3. Stability before dilution-On standing for 3 months at ordinary temperatures (5℃ to 30℃) the disinfectant fluid shall not precipitate nor show separation of more than traces of oil. A creamed fluid which can be rendered homogeneous by gentle mixing may be carried. 4. Stability after dilution-The disinfectant fluid shall be miscible with distilled water and artificial seawater (27 grams of sodium chloride and 5 grams of crystalline magnesium sulphate (MgSO47H2O) dissolved in and made up to 1000 mL with distilled water and filtered before use) in proportions of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5% to give a stable emulsion which shall not break nor show more than traces of separation of either top or bottom oil, when maintained at 18℃ to 22℃ for 6 hours, the sample and diluent having each been brought to a temperature within that range before mixing by pouring the sample into the diluent from a cylinder. 5. Odour and corrosive action-The fluid shall be free from objectionable smell, and when used as directed, shall have no more corrosive action on metals than that occasioned by the water employed as a diluent. PART 2 Specification of Insecticides and Means of Application 6. Insecticide formulations- (a) when used in accordance with instructions for use which shall be specified on the label affixed to the container of an insecticide spray solution or insecticide powder- (i) shall be effective for the purpose specified in those instructions; and (ii) shall not be harmful to humans;(b) shall be suitable for use in crew and passenger accommodation and in spaces used for the preparation of food; and (c) shall be free from offensive odour and, so far as possible, shall be non-staining. 7. Insecticide formulations shall be- (a) in the form of a spray solution not having a flash point lower than 48.9℃ (120℉) when tested by the Abel method and containing an effective concentration of insecticide, when applied as a space spray or as a residual spray in accordance with instructions referred to in section 6(a) by either- (i) a hand-operated, continuous-action sprayer fitted with a nozzle capable of producing a fine mist without coarse droplets; or (ii) a pre-packed press-button pressure canister; and(b) in the form of a powder packed in a dredger and effective when applied to the body or clothing of an infected person in accordance with the instructions referred to in section 6(a).
