<strong>Part</strong> <strong>32</strong>: <strong>Seafarer</strong> Certification<br />
<strong>Part</strong> objective<br />
<strong>Part</strong> <strong>32</strong> sets out the requirements for seafarer certificates. It provides for domestic certificates and, in<br />
addition, certificates that correspond to those provided for in the International Convention on<br />
Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for <strong>Seafarer</strong>s, 1978, as amended (STCW).<br />
At the time this <strong>Part</strong> is made, <strong>New</strong> <strong>Zealand</strong> has not ratified the International Convention on Standards<br />
of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Fishing Ship Personnel, 1995 (STCW-F). The STCW-F<br />
certificates provided for in this <strong>Part</strong> are therefore domestic certificates but are separately described<br />
and provided for with reference to STCW-F as a suitable international standard.<br />
The authority for making <strong>Part</strong> <strong>32</strong> is found in section 36 (1)(b), (o), (s), and (u) of the <strong>Maritime</strong> Transport<br />
Act 1994.<br />
