Clause 72

If a seaman employed on a ship considers that he has cause to complain about the master or any other seaman employed on the ship or about the conditions on board the ship, he may complain to the master.

If the seaman is dissatisfied with the action taken by the master on the complaint or by his failure to take any action, he may state his dissatisfaction to the master and may complain to the Director; and thereupon the master shall make adequate arrangements to enable the seaman to do so as soon as the service of the ship permits.

If the master of a ship fails without reasonable cause to comply with this section, he shall be guilty of an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $2,000.
