To encourage the development of viable employment opportunities for New Zealanders in shipping. How Does it do it ? REPRESENTATION The New Zealand Shipping Federation is a Full Member of the International Chamber of Shipping (ICS), the international organisation of national shipowner association. The ICS is widely regarded as the principal voice of the shipping industry and has significant influence with the International Maritime Organisation. The Federation is also a Full Member of the International Shipping Federation (ISF), the international employers organisation for shipowners. The Intentional Labour Organisation (ILO) has specific sessions, every 8-10 years, devoted solely to Maritime matters. The New Zealand employers delegate to these sessions is normally the person nominated by the New Zealand Shipping Federation in conjunction with the Business New Zealand. New Zealand shipping interests are represented by the Federation on Government Committees such as the Ballast Water Advisory Group, the Oil Pollution Advisory Committee and the ad hoc committee set up to deal with various issues relating to the importation of pests.

Competenz is the industry training organisation for the maritime sector, and the Federation is a member of the maritime advisory group LOBBYING and ADVOCACY The preparation and presentation of submissions putting forward the shipping industry's perspective on a wide range of issues is a key part of the Federation’s work. This is targeted not only at Government, Select Committees and Ministers but also coalition and Opposition parties, Ministries, Government Departments and Agencies, Port Companies, Regional and District Councils, and other organisations. Submissions are made not only in response to proposals, but also proactively seeking changes and improvements, The Federation regularly appears before Select Committees.

Litigation is generally seen as a last resort, but one which will be pursued when necessary. LIAISON It is also important to maintain good and effective working relationships with the relevant agencies and organisations.

Regular contact is maintained with other agencies such as Business New Zealand, Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport, Maritime Law Association, other shipowners associations, Marine Transport Association, Association of Shipping Agents, Shippers Council, port companies, local authorities, other transport organisations, universities and polytechnics. The Federation has a special relationship with the Australian Shipowners Association, particularly in relation to international matters.

It also provides information from Business new Zealandand other ship owner associations. It acts as a source of information for the media and the general public, and has a significant database of international agreements, conventions, resolutions and codes, as well as New Zealand legislation, regulations, rules and Polices.
