An International Maritime Dispute Resolution Centre

Résumé

Justice McKerracher's discussion in this paper is directed towards a plan which the Federal Court has been developing for some months. As McKerracher explains, the Court now wishes to embark upon further collaboration with members of the profession, allied professions and industry. McKerracher briefly reviews recent maritime jurisprudence in the Federal Court, then the development of future plans, including the new National Court Framework and its effect on maritime dispute resolution. The author then turns to discussing plans for the future, which are still evolving.
