Clarification: Cape & Torres News article regarding bulk carrier Movers 3

Clarification: Cape & Torres News article regarding bulk carrier Movers 3
The Maritime Union of Australia wishes to clarify a number of points contained in an article that appeared in the Cape & Torres News regarding the bulk carrier Movers 3, which has been banned from all Australian ports for 18 months by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority after being detained in Weipa for two months.
The article incorrectly identified Sarah Maguire as “MUA Queensland Inspector”. Ms Maguire is an Australian inspector for the International Transport Workers’ Federation.
The article also suggested that Rio Tinto was responsible for the chartering of the Movers 3, which is operated by Aswan Shipping. The bulk carrier is not part of Rio Tinto’s supply chain and was instead chartered by one of the mining company’s customers to transport bauxite from Australian to China.

REMONDIS Australia
REMONDIS Indigenous Joint-Venture to Create Service and Job Opportunities across Cape York
Weipa, 14 April 2021 REMONDIS Australia – Cape York residents and businesses are set to benefit from a ground-breaking indigenous joint-venture intended to bolster local industrial services and stimulate employment.
The 50-50 partnership between REMONDIS Australia (REMONDIS) and JAI-MEC Rural Contracting (JAI-MEC) has seen the creation of a new company called Red Earth Industrial Services.
From this month, Red Earth Industrial Services’ core activity will be twice-weekly domestic waste collections from nearly 3,500 residents in Weipa, Napranum and Mapoon.
This has previously been handled by REMONDIS on behalf of the Weipa Town Authority and Mapoon and Napranum Aboriginal Shire Councils. JAI-MEC has overseen maintenance of REMONDIS’ local 20-vehicle fleet in recent years.
