Whenever a Canadian ship arrives at a port in a Commonwealth country or at a port elsewhere at which there is a consular officer, and remains there for forty-eight hours, the master shall, within forty-eight hours after the ship’s arrival, deliver to the chief officer of customs or to the consular officer, as the case may be, the agreement with the crew, and also all indentures and assignments of apprenticeships, or such of those documents as the ship carries.
