(a) to (c): Government have received a suggestion
from the Government of Gujarat to amend Rule 43 of
the Petroleum Rules, 2002 to include ship breaking

Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport & Highways,
Ministry of Steel and Ports & Transport
Department, Government of Gujarat on proposed draft
amendment were obtained by this Ministry.

comments from PESO inter alia suggested that there
is no need for amendment of Rule 43 for inclusion of
ship breaking activity under Rule 43 (d) of
Petroleum Rules. It also suggested that, if
necessary, the rule may be suitably modified to the
effect that the hot work certificate under Rule 43
(d) be issued by the State Government agencies under
Factories Act and Rules. On these views of the
Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the comments of
Ministry of Steel, Ministry of Shipping and State
Government of Gujarat were called for. Comments of
Ministry of Shipping are still awaited.
