| 35min | ToC | | - David confirmed Compliant programming as achieving compliance with MLETR in an agile software development process (eg. putting the legal requirements as something developers need to consider when developing the software).
- As it is not considered as a technical model, it will be removed from the Technical model section.
- Miriam clarified for 4b.v. (eg. HVR can be satisfied through seaway bill besides Bill of Lading, and that could go beyond scope of white paper. It is agreed to cover the topic in another suitable section.
- Luca suggest mention minimal on Rotterdam Rules to avoid potential political issues.
- On providing clarification for terms used: ‘transferrable’ and ‘negotiable’, Miriam clarified this would depend on domestic laws and not a discussion we need to have for the purpose of compliant with the Model law.
- David suggest to have eUCP in mind when using electronic documents of title.
- Miriam suggest for to lay the Hague/ Hague Visby Rules, Rotterdam rules at the beginning when we are laying down the scope of the whitepaper, main points:
- Rotterdam Rules, might need to research, but if you satisfy the requirements of the Model law, you are unlikely to be found not to have satisfy the requirements of the Rotterdam Rules.
- Hague /Hague Visby Rules, provide an explanation they do contemplate on the issue of Bill of Lading in order to apply and the Model law makes the digital alternative functional equivalent of the Bill of Lading and it can be argued that if you have a digital alternative that is complied with Model law, then you essentially have a Bill of Lading.
