The Maritime Safety Committee, at its fifty-ninth session (May 1991), adopted a new International Code for the Safe Carriage of Grain in Bulk (International Grain Code). This replaced the original chapter VI of the 1974 SOLAS Convention, which contained detailed regulations on the carriage of grain in bulk, with more general requirements and placed the detailed provisions on grain in a separate mandatory code.
