“ The INSA Naval Safety Codes represent a commitment to the responsibilities of naval vessels, moving beyond the basic principles of various legal exemptions. KR believe this serves as a minimum effort toward compliance with international law, taking into account the specific missions of naval vessels. This framework can foster a consensus on international norms. “

“ All three Naval Codes provide the Royal Navy with an invaluable standard for assuring the safety of HM surface warships, submarines, government auxiliaries and boats. The use of INSA's Naval Safety Codes have enabled assurance and successfully issued tailored certification for several decades to our fleet. As INSA as linkages to the NATO structure we are also able to integrate the goal-based approach with military capability needs and solutions to military threats. The pooling of resources across INSA members has generated efficiencies and allows sharing of best practice across allied nations, especially those affiliated to NATO and its partners. “
