Supporting Organisations

Ports Australia is the peak body representing the interests of port and marine authorities in Australia. All Government owned ports, some privatised ports, and most state marine regulatory authorities are members of Ports Australia, as is the Department of Defence through the Royal Australian Navy. Ports Australias mission is to provide leadership and support in areas of common interest related to ports, and to promote achievement of their trade facilitation objectives.

The Australian Shipowners Association is committed to promoting the interests of the shipping industry in Australia. Its primary objectives include dealing with issues which effect the operation of member companies' vessels and which are or have the potential to be subject to regulation by various government agencies.

The major focus of Shipping Australia, as a peak industry body, is both to promote and advance the interests of ship owners and shipping agents in all matters of shipping policy and safe environmentally sustainable ship operations. Shipping Australias members cover many of the major Australian and international ship owners, operators and agency companies involved in bulk, tanker, general cargo shipping, container, passenger and tramp trades.

The role of the AAMA is essentially to generate greater public awareness of maritime affairs. It is not oriented to single industries or interests but provides a focal point for all those with an interest in maritime affairs, especially those people in business, tertiary institutions, the marine professions and the public service who are concerned with any aspect of Australia's maritime affairs.
