Illustration for Maritime Transport Act 1994

You can make a transport instrument if you are a specified person for a maritime Act. A specified person is someone like the Authority, the Director, or the Secretary. They can also be a Crown entity appointed as the Designated Authority under section 7 of the Maritime Security Act 2004. You must not delegate the power to make, amend, or revoke a transport instrument. This means you cannot ask someone else to do it for you. The term specified person is used in this section and in section 452C.
