The information you provide in your incident report plays an important part in guiding the way we improve maritime safety for everybody on the water. By reporting marine incidents to us, you are also meeting your reporting obligations under Australian laws.
A marine notice provides important safety related information, general guidance and details about upcoming changes to legislation to the shipping and maritime community.
Vessels of the following classes: 1D (with unberthed passengers), 1E (with unberthed passengers), 2D, 2E, 3D and 3E, are required to carry certain medical supplies and equipment on-board.
Australia has an interest in ensuring that the ships which visit our ports and transit our waters are seaworthy, have competent crews, and are able to safely navigate through our sensitive marine areas.
