AMSA — strict but fair

Listen to the latest edition of the Lloyd’s List’s weekly podcast — your free weekly briefing on the stories shaping shipping

Lloyd’s List principal analyst Michelle Wiese Bockmann takes the podcast Down Under this week to speak with retiring AMSA chief executive Mick Kinley, who reflects on the strides the regulator has made to improve shipping standards in Australia over the past 30 years 

 

Strict but fair.

That’s the description of the Australian Maritime Safety Authority from retiring chief executive Mick Kinley.

Some of the world’s biggest shipping companies have been named and shamed by the regulator in recent years and their vessels banned from entering ports over substandard conditions or not paying crew.

Speaking with characteristic Australian candour and colour, Kinley reflects on the progress made by the regulator he has led for the past 10 years and offers some advice to the International Maritime Organization where he has been a key figure for some time. 

As Kinley sails off over the horizon after 30 years with AMSA, Lloyd’s List sits down with him to talk about his role, changes in the Australian maritime industry over the past three decades and some of the global achievements the authority has had as it seeks to protect seafarers and maintain standards in shipping. 

Joining Lloyd’s List principal analyst Michelle Wiese Bockmann are:

  • Mick Kinley, chief executive, AMSA

  • Simon Moore, Australia’s alternate permanent representative to the IMO
