Expected delays due to Tropical Cyclone Alfred

Australia Post has closed multiple post offices across south-east Queensland and northern New South Wales and have temporarily paused delivery services across these areas.  This will cause delays in the dispatch and delivery of AMSA issued documents such as seafarer certificates.

Heritage conservation benefits AMSA and the Australian community in several ways.

  • It contributes to valuing and preserving Australia’s maritime history which is so closely linked to the nation’s development.
  • It provides another avenue for AMSA to actively engage with the Australian community to better promote
  • its overall objectives of maritime safety and protection of the marine environment.
  • It improves public access to maritime heritage structures, artefacts and information, in particular to historic lighthouses.
  • It demonstrates that heritage objectives can effectively co-exist with an organisations business objectives.
