AMSA’s Vision
The new Navigation Act and National System –
The first 100 days (nearly…)

From 1 July 2013: The ‘big picture’
![Page 4: Reza Vind Manager West Ship Safety Division · 2014-07-03 · 5.1.3 Maritime labour certificate and declaration of maritime labour compliance 12 1.1% 5 1.8% 3.0 Accommodation, recreational](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041823/5e5f65a00012f869212f238e/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Since 1 July 2013
• Navigation Act 2012 replaced the Navigation Act 1912 and
Lighthouses Act 1911
• The key Parts of the Navigation Act apply to:
- Australian vessels that voyage outside the EEZ, or are certified to do so
(‘Regulated Australian Vessels’ or ‘RAVs’), and
- Foreign vessels in ‘Australian waters’.
![Page 5: Reza Vind Manager West Ship Safety Division · 2014-07-03 · 5.1.3 Maritime labour certificate and declaration of maritime labour compliance 12 1.1% 5 1.8% 3.0 Accommodation, recreational](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041823/5e5f65a00012f869212f238e/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Since 1 July 2013…
• The Marine Safety (Domestic Commercial Vessels) National
Law Act 2012 applies to operations of the ‘domestic commercial
vessel’ (‘DCV’) fleet
- A DCV is an Australian vessel ‘that is for use in connection with a
commercial, governmental or research activity’
• AMSA is the National Regulator of the National System.

The good news
• No vessels sank as a consequence of the removal of the lines in
the sea between the States
• The transitional arrangements we put in place have worked well
• Many seafarers have already ‘converted’ State/NT certificates of
competence to National Law certificates of competence.

Ongoing challenges
• Simplification of application and certification processes (work
program has been developed)
• National Law Surveyor accreditation scheme (draft regulations
have nearly been completed)
• Review and revision of the National Standard for Commercial
Vessels (work program has been developed).

Ongoing challenges
• Change of vessel status from RAV to DCV
- Certification issues
- Dangerous goods carriage
- Shipping Registration Act registration requirements (still apply…)
• Overlapping certification issues (e.g. MARPOL certificates for
DCVs).

Ongoing challenges
• DCVs that engage in voyages beyond the EEZ
• Foreign flagged vessels operating purely intra-state (particularly
manning and survey issues)
• Government vessels (now DCVs) that were excluded or exempt
from rules
• WH&S and application of OHS(MI) (the definition of ‘prescribed
ship’ is still linked to Part II of the Nav Act 1912 …).

Ongoing challenges
• Overlapping but not co-terminus incident reporting obligations and
information flows:
- TSI Act/ATSB
- National Law
- Nav Act
- OHS(MI)
- POTS

Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC)
![Page 12: Reza Vind Manager West Ship Safety Division · 2014-07-03 · 5.1.3 Maritime labour certificate and declaration of maritime labour compliance 12 1.1% 5 1.8% 3.0 Accommodation, recreational](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041823/5e5f65a00012f869212f238e/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What is the MLC?
• Provides protection of the seafarers’ rights
to decent work and living conditions whilst at
sea
• A consolidation of existing labour conventions
into one document
• A level playing field for Governments and
Shipowners
• Now referred to as the fourth pillar – IMO
SOLAS, STCW, Marpol
![Page 13: Reza Vind Manager West Ship Safety Division · 2014-07-03 · 5.1.3 Maritime labour certificate and declaration of maritime labour compliance 12 1.1% 5 1.8% 3.0 Accommodation, recreational](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041823/5e5f65a00012f869212f238e/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Maritime Labour Convention
So……………… what has happened in Australia:
Australia have ratified and implemented MLC so it is in effect
Australia notes ILC resolution XVII and will apply its recommendations…..
But………………
While vessel will not be detained for the lack of MLC certification they MUST
still comply with the convention
![Page 14: Reza Vind Manager West Ship Safety Division · 2014-07-03 · 5.1.3 Maritime labour certificate and declaration of maritime labour compliance 12 1.1% 5 1.8% 3.0 Accommodation, recreational](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022041823/5e5f65a00012f869212f238e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Maritime Labour Convention
Since 20 August 2013 (until 28 May 2014) AMSA have inspected 2756 ships
for an initial PSC. This process included an MLC inspection.
594 MLC related deficiencies have been identified and 14 ships detained (one
twice)
2 in WA Ports – both for insufficient food and/or quality of food on board
So ……………. why are ships being detained?
