Garry E. Hall as commander of Combined Task Force (CTF) 158 during a ceremony at Naval Support Activity Bahrain Sept. 27. Command of CTF 158 typically rotates among coalition partners Australia, United Kingdom and the United States. CTF 158 is comprised of coalition ships and its primary mission in the Persian Gulf is Maritime Security Operations (MSO) in and around both the Al Basrah and Khawr Al Amaya Oil Terminals (ABOT and KAAOT, respectively), in support of U.N. Security Council Resolution 1723. This resolution charges the multinational force with the responsibility and authority to maintain security and stability in Iraqi territorial waters and also supports the Iraqi government's request for security support. Additionally, under the training and leadership of CTF 158, Iraqi marines aboard ABOT and KAAOT train with the coalition in order to eventually assume responsibility for security. “I am honored to have been in command of this task force,” said Hall. “The coalition forces have done an excellent job of providing security to the oil platforms and training the Iraqi forces.” “I am very proud of the coalition forces and my staff in supporting the CTF 158 mission,” said Capt.

    MICHAEL OUTRAM COMMISSIONER AUSTRALIAN BORDER FORCE Opening Statement Legal and Constitutional Affairs Legislation Committee Thursday 4 April 2019 ________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for the opportunity to provide an opening statement. NEW ZEALAND TERROR ATTACK Many of us in the Australian Border Force work side-by-side with our New Zealand counterparts every day, at our Australian Border Operations Centre here in Canberra and through engagement on every day passenger and cargo movements and enforcement operations. In the midst of the shock and sadness we all felt in the aftermath of the tragic terrorist attack in Christchurch, a small number of ABF officers were deployed to New Zealand to work with them and support any requests from them. The Australian Border Force enjoys a very special relationship with colleagues in New Zealand Customs and New Zealand Immigration and if anything these events have further strengthened those relationships. Our thoughts and condolences remain with those who died and suffered as a result of events in Christchurch on that dreadful day. FIREARMS The events in Christchurch have, understandably, brought the issue of firearms restrictions into focus. Australia has a strong legislative framework in place surrounding firearms and the ABF manages the legitimate import and export of firearms across our border, including through engagement with importers and traders. We also conduct enforcement operations to detect and seize undeclared firearms at the border. Together with the Department of Home Affairs, Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission, AFP and State and Territory Police, we all play an important part in our system of managing firearms. We also work closely with our international partners.

    CHIEF of NAVY AUSTRALIA Vice Admiral Michael Noonan, AO, RAN

    CHIEF OF NAVY AUSTRALIA Vice Admiral Michael Noonan, AO, RAN A professional head of the Australian Navy was formally established on 25 February 1904 when Captain (later Vice Admiral Sir) William Rooke Creswell, KCMG, RN, was appointed Director of the Commonwealth Naval Forces. Upon the granting of Royal Assent to establish the Royal Australian Navy on 10 July 1911, Creswell, by then a Rear Admiral, became the First Naval Member of the Australian Commonwealth Naval Board, a position he held until 9 June 1919. The first Australian born officer to hold the position was Tasmanian Vice Admiral Sir John Augustine Collins, KBE, CB, RAN. He held the position from February 1948 to February 1955. Vice Admiral Michael Noonan, AO, RAN joined the Royal Australian Navy in 1984, trained as a seaman officer and then subsequently completed Principal Warfare Officers course and specialised in Air Direction and Above Water Warfare. Throughout his career, he had experience in a wide range of Navy and ADF operations through various sea and shore posting and operational roles. Highlights have included deployments to the Middle East, Southern Ocean and being the Commissioning Commanding Officer of the Anzac class frigate HMAS Parramatta. He has fulfilled leadership positions at all levels of the Australian Defence Force, with senior positions including the Director of Military Strategic Commitments, Director General of Operations at HQJOC, Command of Maritime Border Command and Deputy Chief of Navy. In June 2018, he was appointed as an Officer of the Order of Australia in recognition of his distinguished service in significant senior ADF command roles.

A uniquely large island nation with a long coastline and few close neighbours, Australia benefits from an immense mari- time domain, the third largest in the world. However, with relatively few maritime enforcement resources and an extreme dependence on sea bourne trade, maritime enforcement Australia faces an extremely difficult task in monitoring and ensuring compliance with national laws throughout its maritime jurisdiction. We highlight current threats to Australia’s marine environment including protection of natural resources, piracy, terrorism and illegal arrivals, and examine Australia’s capabilities, legislation and approach to combating these risks. Essential to Australia’s strategy is collaboration across domestic civil and defence agencies, use of innovative approaches and technologies, and regional and international partnerships through creative agree- ments and treaties.

Gunnery training began in Victoria at the Williamstown Naval Depot in 1885. The Williamstown Naval Depot became HMAS CERBERUS in 1911 when the Royal Australian Navy was formed and the Gunnery School moved to Flinders Naval Depot (HMAS CERBERUS) in 1920, when the Williamstown Naval Depot closed down. HMAS NIRIMBA, has a Gunnery Officer and Gunnery staff dedicated to parade training for new entries and for training the many Guards of Honour and armed parties for ceremonial occasions manned by NIRIMBA personnel in the City and suburbs of Sydney. Parade training is part of the syllabus of first term entrants and parade training continues throughout the time trainees are at NIRIMBA. This training culminates with the Passing Out Parade when the graduates form the Passing Out Guard for the Reviewing Officer. In addition, the Gunnery staff is responsible for small arms and expedition training in conjunction with the Physical Training staff. HMAS NIRIMBA acquired two naval field guns in 1961 and for many years these guns were displayed at the entrance to NIRIMBA. Due to the number of times these weapons were hauled away by playful apprentices, they have lately been locked up and only taken out on ceremonical occasions.
