Marine Policy, 1996, vol. 20, issue 3, 229-234

Abstract: Foreign ships in distress have a right to enter internal waters, including ports, and enjoy certain immunities from the jurisdiction of the host State. This article analyses the contribution made to the law by the decision of the Court of Appeal for St. Helena in Merk and Djaklmah v the Queen (1992).
