AUSTRALIAN NAVIGATION BILL.
LONDON, February 4
The Council of the Mercantile Marine Service Association complains that the Australian Navigation Bill occasionally but unwarrantably interferes With the prerogatives of the Board of Trade. The council protests against section 369 of the bill, and desires revision of those parts relating to courts of marine inquiry. This clause provides that if a certificate has been cancelled by an Australian court of marine inquiry the fact that the certificate had been returned to the officer by the Board of Trade, or the authority winch originally granted it, other than the Court of Appeal, shall not enable the said master or officer to serve on a bhip in Australia in the capacity specified in the cancelled certificate.
