Where there are special grounds for so doing, GL reserve the right to impose more comprehensive requirements with respect to the manufacture, properties and testing of materials and products, where these appear necessary in the light of more recent research or operational experience, and GL likewise reserve the right to sanction departures from the Rules, where these are technically justified.
