- Description
The cartoon shows the container ship Rena run aground on Astrolabe Reef off the Tauranga coast. The ship is flying a black flag of convenience. Context: Ships owned in one country but registered in another are described as flying flags of convenience. Merchant Service Guild secretary Helen McAra said flag-of-convenience ships, such as the Rena which are registered in countries where there is little enforcement of international labour, safety and environmental regulations now dominated New Zealand's coastal shipping. The officers are not necessarily familiar with the unpredictable sea conditions here, nor are they obliged to comply with New Zealand maritime rules and regulations." (Stuff 12 October 2011)
