Australia New Zealand tonnage burden prompts serious risk
The secretary of the Steamship Owners’ Association cites about 390 000 tons of Australian and New Zealand shipping excluded from protections. He warns the liability shifted to those owners could reach £3 507 000, a risk deemed gravely serious. Australia and New Zealand tonnage is too small to form a similar club, and members will be asked to consider the decision with great care.
