Marine Pilotage Review
NSW Maritime is currently reviewing existing NSW marine pilotage legislation with the purpose of updating it as part of the amended Marine Safety Act 1998.
The review includes consideration of the current Training Code for Marine Pilots and Exempt Masters 2003. It is proposed that a new Marine Pilotage Code will replace the Training Code. The Marine Pilotage Code will be formally ‘called up’ in legislation and it will include health assessment and training standards for NSW marine pilots.
Development of the new Standard for Health Assessment of Marine Pilots (NSW) (the Standard) has recently completed. As an interim measure, until development of the remainder of the amendments to the pilotage legislation has completed, the Standard has been introduced for use. The Standard, its forms and the details of medical practitioners who are authorised to carry out health assessments of marine pilots in NSW can be accessed below.
