Safety bulletins

Safety bulletins are used to alert people to a specific and significant marine hazard in any arena of Maritime New Zealand’s operations, for example health and safety, rules or codes. Where an incident has occurred, safety bulletins bring the hazard and any related issues to industry’s attention with the aim to avoid a similar incident.
