88—Duration of certificates of competency
(1)Subject to the Act, a certificate of competency of a class appropriate to a commercial vessel issued after the commencement of this regulation expires 5 years after the day on which it is issued, or on such earlier day as may be specified by the CEO on the certificate of competency, and may be re‑validated or renewed in accordance with these regulations.
(2)Subject to the Act, the following provisions apply in relation to a certificate of competency of a class appropriate to a commercial vessel issued before the commencement of this subregulation:
(a)in the case of a certificate of competency of a class appropriate to a trading vessel issued before 23 September 1999—the certificate remains in force until cancelled;

88A—Certain certificates of competency not to be varied
(1)This regulation applies to a certificate of competency issued before the commencement of this regulation.
(2)Despite any other provision of these regulations, a certificate of competency to which this regulation applies cannot be varied (but nothing in this subregulation prevents the holder of such a certificate from applying for a new certificate of competency).
(3)Without limiting regulation 87, if the holder of a certificate of competency to which this regulation applies—
(a)applies for a new certificate of competency to replace the certificate of competency; and
(b)surrenders the certificate of competency,
the CEO must issue a new certificate of competency of the appropriate class to the person.
(4)Nothing in subregulation (3) prevents the CEO from issuing a certificate to the applicant that is of a different class to the original certificate of competency, or that is subject to an endorsement not applicable to the original certificate of competency (but the CEO should, unless he or she is of the opinion that it is not appropriate to do so, seek to give effect to any variation sought by the applicant).
Example—
The CEO may issue the applicant who currently holds a certificate for a trading vessel with a certificate appropriate to both fishing and trading vessels—for the various classes of certificates see regulation 78.
(5)To avoid doubt, a certificate of competency issued in accordance with this regulation is a certificate of competency issued after the commencement of this regulation.
