Clause 15-16. Relationship to Chapter 16
The provisions contained in this Section shall apply in addition to the provisions in Chapter 16.
Instead of Cl. 16-1, sub-clause 2 (b), the following shall apply:
The insurer is liable for loss due to the vessel being wholly or partly deprived of income because it is prevented from leaving a port or a similar limited area.
Clause 15-17. Loss in connection with a call at a visitation port, a temporary stay, etc.
The insurer is also liable for loss of time if the vessel is brought to a port by a foreign State power for the purpose of:
- visitation and search of cargo, etc.
- capture and temporary detention.
If the assured is entitled to compensation for total loss under Cl. 15-11 or Cl. 15-12, it is not entitled to compensation under this Section beyond the first month of the loss of time. If compensation has already been paid, it shall be deducted from the total loss compensation.
Clause 15-18. Loss caused by orders issued by the insurer
The insurer is also liable for loss of time resulting from orders issued by the insurer, cf. Cl. 15-4. However, this does not apply to orders given by the insurer in connection with the outbreak of war.
If the assured is entitled to compensation for total loss under Cl. 15-13, Cl. 15-17, sub-clause 2, shall apply correspondingly.

Sub-clause 1 sets out the situations in which the assured is entitled to cover under the provision. Calls at a port for visitation (sub-clause 1 (a)) are usually only relevant in wartime or war-like conditions, cf. Cl. 2-9, sub-clause 1 (a), but are also possible in other circumstances, for…
