Mr. Aiden Ryan at the Transport, Infrastructure and Communities Committee

On November 22nd, 2023. See this statement in context.

November 22nd, 2023 / 7:45 p.m.

Director, Marine Security Operations, Department of Transport

I would just reiterate that the purpose of the Marine Transportation Security Act, just in fact already approved by the committee, is to address security risks and threats to the marine transportation system and the health of persons in it.

The Canada Shipping Act already provides the legal framework for regulating marine navigation and safety for the purposes of protecting the public interest and the environment.
