| description | For over a period of over sixty years, South Africa has applied the provisions of the MSA enacted in 1951 to matters relating to shipowner’s right to limit liability.

This is important because knowing what the discrepancies of the current dispensation are, will enable us to evaluate whether the newly proposed amendments will address them. |
