Maritime NZ takes the welfare of seafarers extremely seriously. We will continue to monitor the situation closely and will take any action necessary to ensure compliance with all applicable international and domestic maritime regulations.
We understand from the vessel's Master and agent that the crew are adequately provisioned and are doing well. We are making general enquiries with crew and relevant authorities regarding their wellbeing and will continue to monitor the situation.
As is the case for any foreign ship in New Zealand waters, if anyone has concerns about crew welfare, Maritime NZ asks them to notify us. Notifications can be made by seafarers or others via the homepage of our website: www.maritimenz.govt.nz .
