Coast Guard gives qualified support to integration plan

RMA The Australian Volunteer Coast Guard (AVCG) confirmed today its commitment to work co-operatively with the Queensland Government to merge Queensland’s various marine search and rescue organisations into a single service. But AVCG National Commodore Mr Terry Langford said the group’s support was in-principle only, given the state government had not yet released any implementation details. “Once the government produces its implementation plan, the AVCG board will review it in detail and provide a formal response,” he said. “The consultation process has been going on since February 2019 on the Blue Water Review and an interim Working Group (BWIWG) was formed in March this year. We now need a set of milestones on the draft concept of operations so all parties can chart the way forward for the single integrated service.”

It’s a credit to him personally, though, that the longstanding VMR Mackay volunteer was called to the MECC stage on Monday night at the Mackay 2021 Australia Day awards. “I’m not in it for the awards, I’m in it because I enjoy doing it,” Mr McLennan said. “This is not just for me; this is for the whole team of VMR Mackay.
