The text describes rules for ship inspections. All vessels sent by the Resident to that area must carry a pass or sealed permit stating their cargo and the number of European and Islander crew members. Before going directly on board, they must show this to one of the patrol ships, which will check if everything matches what is written on the pass. When these vessels leave again, they must stop at the same patrol ship for another inspection, particularly to verify if the specified number of crew members is returning.
