Commentary:

 

Many of IMO's most important technical conventions contain provisions for ships to be inspected when they visit foreign ports to ensure that they meet IMO requirements.

 

Port State Control (PSC) is the inspection of foreign ships in national ports to verify that the condition of the ship and its equipment comply with the requirements of international regulations and that the ship is manned and operated in compliance with these rules. (source - http://www.imo.org/)

 

PSC is very important instrument in raising standards of Maritime Safety as well as it is an important parameter in the risk assessment process.
