  • Review of Boating Safety on the Murray River
    REVIEW OF BOATING SAFETY ON THE MURRAY RIVER PAPER FOR PUBLIC COMMENT Message from the Minister Keeping people safe on our waterways is paramount – it is the most important part of my responsibilities as Minister for Waterways. It is not enough to simply regulate or impose restrictions – we must look at intelligent solutions to complex problems. In the Murray River region the number of incidents, injuries and fatalities is simply too high. Between 1 December 2009 and 13 February 2010 there were seven serious incidents and four fatalities. Having visited the area and seen the complexities first- hand, it is clear the solution must be targeted, pragmatic and, importantly, driven by the people who use the waterway. That’s why this review is so important. It is our opportunity to make the Murray region a safer place for all waterway users. I encourage everyone with an interest in the area to read the facts, consider the solution and work together to make the Murray a fun, safe and responsible place to be on the water. The Hon Paul McLeay MP Minister for the Illawarra Minister for Ports & Waterways Minister for Mineral & Forest Resources RIVER MURRAY REVIEW 1 Executive summary The Murray River and its associated waterways provide important recreational opportunities for boaters from NSW and Victoria. The river waters fall under the jurisdiction of NSW and boating is managed by NSW Maritime. As the river also forms the border between NSW and Victoria, this waterway is used by the boating communities of both states and therefore safety requires a cooperative approach.
