Vessels fishing in the Guinea-Bissau zone with a defective VMS system must communicate their position messages by e-mail, radio or fax to the FMC of the flag State, at least every four hours, and must provide all the information stipulated in paragraph 1.2.
Dès que la Guinée-Bissau aura mis en place un FMC opérationnel, le FMC de l'État de pavillon transmet automatiquement les messages de position des navires concernés au FMC de la Guinée-Bissau.
