sec.75 General manager may grant temporary permit for master or crew member
The general manager may grant a permit to a person to operate a prescribed other Queensland regulated ship as its master, or to act as a crew member of a prescribed other Queensland regulated ship, on a stated voyage or for a stated period. The procedure for obtaining the permit is in chapter 6 , part 2 . The general manager may grant a permit under subsection (1) only if the general manager is reasonably satisfied— the person is, for the voyage or the period, competent to operate the ship as its master or act as a crew member of the ship; and marine operations will not be endangered on a voyage on which the person operates the ship as its master or acts as a crew member under the permit; and the voyage mentioned in paragraph (b) is necessary to maintain the effectiveness and efficiency of the Queensland maritime industry. The term of the permit must not be longer than 30 days. A person to whom a permit is granted under subsection (1) is taken to hold the required licence to operate the prescribed other Queensland regulated ship as its master, or act as a crew member of the ship. However, if the person does not comply with the conditions of the permit for a period, subsection (4) does not apply to the person for that period.
