Under the SIRE Programme, the operator of any ship that is the subject of a report was given a copy of that
report and the opportunity to submit written comments relating to the report, to both the inspecting OCIMF
Member and to OCIMF.
Report recipients accessed the SIRE System Index by computer and this permitted the index to be viewed or
downloaded. Programme recipients could order reports and any matching operator comments from the SIRE
system. Reports and comments were transmitted by facsimile to the programme recipients' pre-registered
facsimile numbers on request.
