The FIC will be conducted from 1 May 2022 to 30 June 2022.
Inspections
AMSA inspectors will undertake the FIC in conjunction with a normal port or flag State control inspection.
Any port State control deficiencies will be reported to regional port State control databases.
AMSA encourages ship owners and masters to familiarise themselves with the requirements of the Maritime Labour Convention 2006 (MLC) and the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW), Australian Marine Orders 11 and 28 and their respective safety management system, including how they are implemented onboard.
Inspectors will complete a checklist when conducting focused inspections so that AMSA can collate and report on the outcomes.
Outcome of the FIC
The results of the FIC will be analysed at the conclusion of the campaign, and a de-identified report will be published on our website.
Further information
AMSA's website provides information on the
focused inspection campaign and a

This notice will be cancelled on 30 June 2022.
