Foreign ships while within, approaching or leaving any port in New Zealand where New Zealand law requires a pilot to be engaged, or where it is likely that the master will choose to engage a pilot.

Maritime Rule Part 49?
Ship’s Lifting Appliances
Maritime Rules Part 49
[PDF: 82kB, 12 pages]
Part 49 deals with the testing, examination and inspection of ships’ lifting appliances and the loose cargo gear carried onboard the ship.
It also requires the marking of a ship’s lifting appliances and loose cargo gear and the carriage of a register of equipment, rigging plan and certificates of test for the lifting appliances and gear.
Part 49 complements the Guidelines for Safety and Health in Port Operations, under the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992, which covers the safety of lifting appliances and gear which are shore-based. Please note that these guidelines will be updated under the new Health and Safety at Work Act (HSWA) 2015 in the near future.
Both the OSH Guidelines and Part 49 implement the requirements of the International Labour Organisation’s Occupational Safety and Health (Dock Safety) Convention 1979, No. 152.

Maritime Rule Part 31?

This Part also sets out requirements relating to fitness for duty, prescribed hours of rest, and watchkeeping that apply in relation to some ships in accordance with the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW).
Maritime Rules Part 46?
Surveys, Certification & Maintenance
What Part 46 applies to
This rule is made up of:
Section 1, which applies to:
applicable New Zealand ships
Section 3, which applies to:
New Zealand barges of 24 metres or more in length which do not carry any person on board while underway
Section 4, which relates to:
foreign ships while they are at a New Zealand port or operating on the New Zealand coast. (Port State Control)
Section 1 prescribes the survey and certification requirements of SOLAS 74, to which New Zealand is currently party, for those New Zealand ships to which the convention applies. In drafting this Part the opportunity has been taken to adopt for New Zealand ships the harmonised system of survey and certification adopted by the 1988 SOLAS Protocol. To fully effect the harmonised system the survey and certification requirements for load lines (Part 47) will reflect the 1988 Load Line Protocol and the marine protection rules have already adopted the amended provisions of MARPOL Annexes I and II (MEPC. 39(29)). The advantages of the harmonised system are that the periodicity of surveys are consistent and surveys for SOLAS, Load Line and MARPOL conventions can be undertaken concurrently. In adopting the harmonised system New Zealand non-passenger ships are to be issued with the single Cargo Ship Safety Certificate rather than three separate certificates for construction, safety equipment and radio.
Maritime Rule Part 47?
Load Line Rules
Part 47 is divided into three sections. Section 1 applies to commercial ships of more than 24 metres in length, other than fishing ships, and barges of 24 metres in length or more which operate outside the coastal limit. Section 2 applies to smaller ships which carry cargo and section 3 applies to barges of 24 metres in length or more which do not go beyond the coastal limit.
Each section prescribes requirements for assigning and marking load lines and the issue of a load line certificate in respect of the ship or barge. The assigned and marked load lines indicate the draught to which the ship or barge may be safely loaded having regard to its design, construction and area of operation. The load line certificate issued indicates the nature of the load lines and minimum freeboards assigned to the ship or barge, and records the conditions of assignment. Periodic surveys are required to verify the marked load line and maintenance of the ship or barge construction detail which has been taken into consideration in assigning the load lines
