Abstract

These Regulations are made under the Protection of the Sea (Oil Pollution Compensation Funds) Act 1993 and implement provisions of that Act in relation with, among other things, registration and enforcement of judgements, jurisdiction and court fees for purposes of provisions of the 2003 Protocol establishing an International Oil Pollution Compensation Supplementary Fund. The Act also provides rules relative to the setting aside of a registered judgement and requires a person to whom Article 10 of the 2003 Protocol applies to keep records for each calendar year of the matters that will enable the person to make a return to Australian Maritime Safety Authority.
