Court ruling provides insurance guidance for piracy-related losses

By Alan Peat If you’re ever an SA victim of piracy (like the frequent Somalian version), a piracy case just heard in England will interest you.

Said Andrew Robinson, director of lawyers Deneys Reitz and president of the Maritime Law Association (MLA): “The recent decision in the Masefield v Amlin case

has provided some useful guidance to SA insurers and cargo interests whose goods are exposed to the perils of piracy.

“Whilst the decision largely centred on issues of actual and constructive total loss of cargo under the English Marine Insurance Act 1906,” he added, “the decision remains relevant to South African importers and exporters.

It’s certainly very applicable to the SA scene, with Deneys Reitz having advised a local insurance underwriter about whether it would be lawful to secure a claim by a ship owner against a cargo owner for a contribution to general average expenses where a significant portion of the general average expenses included a ransom payment to have the ship, cargo and crew released

from pirates.

This followed a ship with SA-destined cargo aboard being hijacked by pirates late last year off the east coast of Africa. After a long wait, the ship, cargo and crew were eventually released against the payment of a ransom.

The issues that needed to be considered were not at all dissimilar to those faced by the cargo interests and

underwriters in the Masefield case. On August 19, 2008, on a voyage from Malaysia to Rotterdam, the “Bunga Melati Dua”, together with her crew and cargo, was seized by Somali pirates.

It remained in the hands of the pirates until October, when a ransom was paid and the ship released to continue its voyage.

Changes to Sars Cheque Deposits From 01 April 2010 the South African Revenue Service (Sars) will no longer accept cheque payments made using the abbreviation “Sars”. All cheques must now be made out to “South African Revenue Service”.

According to Sars, this decision has been taken as part of its ongoing efforts and that of the banking institutions to limit the opportunities for fraudulent activities as well as decrease possible losses due to similar account names.

Taxpayers can also pay by online banking, electronic funds transfers (EFTs) or payments through the secure efiling channel.

New ICC Rules for Demand Guarantees On 18 March 2010 the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC)

unveiled an extensively revised version of the Uniform Rules for Demand Guarantees (URDG) to be implemented on 01 July 2010 which will be instrumental in adopting uniform practices in trade finance. The revision of the URDG has been carried out by the ICC Banking Commission and the ICC Commission on Commercial Law and Practice, which are made up of representatives from companies around the world.

The new rules contain significant changes practitioners will need to know, including: (i) New definitions and interpretation rules to provide greater clarity and precision; (ii) The treatment of non-documentary conditions, asymmetrical guarantees and counterguarantees, incomplete presentations, and many

other contentious practices; (iii) Comprehensive coverage of advice of guarantees, amendments, electronic documents, transfers, and other innovative aspects of demand guarantee practice; (iv) A provision on force majeure that triggers an extension of a guarantee for thirty calendar days; and (v) The replacement of “reasonable time” with fixed periods for the examination of demands, the extension of guarantees and the suspension of payments.

ICC to Host Major Banking Conference On 23 April 2010 the world’s top banking leaders and experts will assemble in Beijing, People’s Republic of China to discuss key issues and solutions for speeding up recovery from the economic crisis. The Conference is titled “Trade Routes to Recovery”.

A highlight of the meeting will be the release

of the findings of the ICC Global Trade Finance Survey 2010. The survey is a leading market research initiative of the ICC to fill the information gap in trade and finance.

Final Opportunity – Comment Due A notice has appeared in respect of the: (i) proposed increase in the rate of customs duty on pigments and preparations based on chrome oxide green, lead chromate, zinc chromate, barium chromate or strontium chromate, inorganic pigments; and (ii) possible re-instatement of the Rebate Items which existed prior to the reduction of the tariff.

Compu-Clearing teams up with Aussie systems provider

TPT postpones roll-out of Navis for Durban

‘Redefining the standards for logistics supply chain systems’

Mid-year is the new scheduled date

In an SA-Australia tieup, a joint-venture has been signed up between freight industry systems provider CompuClearing Outsourcing in Johannesburg and the Sydney-based technology supplier for logistics service providers, CargoWise.

This partnership is expected to benefit both companies’ customers throughout the country by providing improved integration between SA Customs and the CargoWise “ediEnterprise” system, and a better link with other SA authorities, like the Transnet group.

Richard White, CEO of CargoWise, told FTW that the two companies had been working together for some time to bring this CargoWise flagship product to the SA market.

“After careful

By Alan Peat

consideration of all our options in SA,” he added, “the professionalism, capability and skill in customs clearance and other local requirements that Compu-Clearing exhibits made it the logical choice for a JV partnership.”

This affiliation with Compu-Clearing and SA Customs’ data-base is not alone, with CargoWise having an interface with Customs in the UK, Germany, the US, Singapore, New Zealand, and Australia – with Canada in the short-term pipeline.

According to Johan du Preez, director of Compu-Clearing and MD of the joint venture, the ediEnterprise system will be fully integrated into Compu-Clearing – and “provide the best of both worlds”.

“This modern system uses the latest technologies,” he added, “and it has a huge range of powerful functionality that has not been seen in SA until now.”

At the same time, he saw Compu-Clearing providing “strong functionality and deep expertise” in SA Customs.

“The combination of both companies,” Du Preez told FTW, “provides a comprehensive single platform solution for all logistics operations – and will redefine the standards for logistics supply chain systems.”

Describing the partner company, he said that 1 300 logistics service providers (consisting of 33 000 users in 45 countries) move goods every day through the global supply chain using the CargoWise system.

The grand opening of the new Navis N4 computer system planned for Durban container terminal (DCT) and the other terminals at ports around the country has been postponed from tomorrow (March 27) to the middle of the year.

Navis is a newer and more cultivated programme than the current Cosmos system, and Transnet has described it as being more versatile and smarter.

The decision to postpone the start of the system was not taken lightly, saiud to Siyabulela Mhlaluka, divisional executive manager for containers at Transnet Port Terminals (TPT) in Durban, in a communiqué to port users in mid-month.

“Much work has been done together with industry to prepare for the go-live,”

Siyabulela Mhlaluka... ‘Go -live was an unacceptably high risk.’

he added.

But not everything’s been sorted out with the Navis system yet, and a go-live was “an unacceptably high risk” to TPT. Mhaluka said that the grand opening would now be held in late July, and port users will be informed of the new dating prior to its arrival.

High-cube moratorium extended The unofficial moratorium on prosecution of standard container trucks carrying high-cube containers still stands, according to deputy minister of transport, Jeremy Cronin.

Last week he held a meeting in Cape Town with

the Road Freight Association (RFA) and the SA Association of Ship Operators and Agents (Saasoa) and told them that the department of transport intended to get something officially written to this effect, according to Gavin Kelly, RFA technical

and operations manager.

“It was a very good meeting,” he said, “and confirms that the moratorium will continue until the whole issue is legislatively sorted out.”

The legality of transporting high-cube containers with a

Your fastest route to Africa

travel height of 4.5-4.6 metres on normal rather than lowbed truck trailers has been in the news since a threatened ban in December last year.

Business Unity South Africa recently sent a letter to the Department of Transport calling for an urgent lifting

of the selective ban, pointing out that the total height was below that of a doubledecker bus or a standard car carrier, both of which are exempt from the height restriction and are therefore legally allowed to use public roads.

DAL ‘quietly optimistic’ as volumes exceed expectation

By Joy Orlek What a difference a year makes.

After the gloom that dominated the start of 2009, volumes this year have exceeded expectations, says DAL Agency managing director Ron Frick.

While South African trade statistics for the first 11 months of 2009 indicate a decline of 23% in imports and 26.3% in exports, there was a remarkable recovery in the last quarter, says Frick.

And according to economists imports are likely to show modest growth of 8.5% this year on the back of improved consumer demand for durable goods, while there has been strong growth in the agricultural export sector particularly out of Malawi.

“They had a good tobacco season last year with healthy volumes to Europe, but tobacco is seasonal and this month (March) will mark the end of the 08/09 tobacco season,” he said.

The perishable sector was least affected by recession, but unfavourable weather

patterns played their role – as did global buying patterns.

“Unseasonal rain in the Cape at the beginning of 09 affected export production – particularly of grapes. And there was a definite decline into the UK because of the economic situation, resulting in large volumes of export fruit being diverted to the Middle and Far East where better prices were achieved for the farmers.

‘Demand for space will peak in April/May and again at the end of the tournament as stock levels are replenished.’

“The deciduous season started in November last year and volumes are back to normal. There’s strong demand in Europe and reefer capacity is well utilised as a result. The grape season is now tailing off and we’re about to go into the pome fruit season, with all indications that demand is strong.”

The Reefer Express

service introduced last month by the SA Europe Container Service (Saecs), of which DAL is a member, will continue until the end of the season in August or for as long as the demand for reefer capacity exists.

Early export sailings in 2010 have been well utilised, says Frick, although port congestion remains a perennial concern for vessel operators.

In Cape Town there’s a combination of wind delays, a general increase in cargo, and container berths that are not fully functional due to upgrades, while the severe European winter has also affected schedule integrity as has productivity in European ports.

But despite the many challenges that lie ahead, Frick is bullish about the outlook for 2010. The main challenge is to get the freight rates back at least to where they were prior to the economic meltdown in the first quarter of 2009, he says. “The rate restoration is extremely important for the liner industry, in order to be able to provide SA

Ron Frick … ‘Spike in particular products imported for the World Cup.’

importers and exporters with the necessary capacity and dependable sailing schedule that enables them to plan their inventories to minimise cost,” says Frick.

“We anticipate that during the World Cup demand for space will peak in April/May and again at the end of the tournament as stock levels are replenished.

“After that we expect it to level off and show modest growth. Economists estimate

that the economy will grow by 5-8% but there is likely to be more growth from the Far East than Europe.”

At the moment there’s been a spike in particular products imported for the World Cup – like 100 containers of confectionery and beverages that is a once-off bonus – while a lot of equipment and infrastructural cargo especially imported for the event will be reshipped to Europe.

For DAL the outlook is therefore quietly optimistic.

“Africa is coming into its own as a supplier partner for the rest of Africa and is seen as both reliable and costeffective.”

With its regional agency network in place, DAL Agency is well placed to take advantage of the many opportunities this will present.

“All indications bode well for a return to normal operation – but as always shipping lines will keep a close eye on the supply and demand ratio before introducing more capacity into the service.”

Speedy action by Namport averts congestion surcharge High level intervention improves productivity

By Alan Peat A pat on the back for the Namibian Port of Walvis Bay, which managed to avert being the subject of a congestion surcharge by improving its productivity at the insistence of an SA-based shipping line.

“The positive thing,” said Markus Popken of Maritime Carrier Shipping (Macs), “is that when we complained the Port of Walvis Bay sent its CEO to Cape Town to talk to us, and to try to sort out the vessel delay hassle.”

This followed some pretty serious problems recorded

by Macs through the whole of last year.

Said Popken: ”During the course of 2009 we experienced berthing delays of up to 12 vessel days per month.”

These delays, he added,

were because a major shipping line was using the port as a transhipment hub, and this was crowding everybody else out of the port.

At the start of this year, the line decided that this situation was no longer sustainable – and threatened to impose a congestion surcharge of US$200 per TEU and €15 per freight ton on all import and export cargo to-and-from Walvis Bay from March 1.

This resulted in almost immediate action by the port and its principal, the Namibian Ports Authority (Namport), and serious attempts to find a solution to avoid berthing delays.

And the port succeeded.

“We had various meetings with Namport and other service providers,” Popken told FTW, “and the port put

a real effort into being more productive.

“So much so that, although delays were still being experienced, it was possible to achieve a substantial improvement of our ships’ turnaround time

in Walvis Bay.” Macs therefore decided to suspend the implementation of the congestion surcharge until October 1 this year – subject to a further review to be held in August.

The line also expressed

its gratitude for the port authority’s support on the delay issue.

“And,” said Popken, “we hope that the review in August will prove that no congestion surcharge is required.”

SIXTH STATE OF LOGISTICS SURVEY

Whopping increase in logistics costs widens competitive barrier 14.7% of GDP compared to 9.4% in the US

By Liesl Venter The costs of logistics increased by a whopping 6.9% totalling around R339 billion a year compared to the previous year’s R317 billion, the Sixth State of Logistics Survey found.

Comparing this to the 2004 figure of R213 billion, domestic costs remain far too high, said Dr Jan Havenga, director at the Stellenbosch University Centre for Supply Chain Management.

The State of Logistics survey, published annually by the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR), Imperial Logistics and Stellenbosch University, found that while the increase in the costs for 2008, the time-frame for the study, was at its lowest since 2004 as a percentage

FTW0017SP

of gross domestic product (GDP) at 14.7% of GDP, it was exceptionally high compared to other countries. The United States logistics costs are only 9.4% of GDP. “Global pressures remain to reduce logistics costs, while increasing emphasis is being placed on providing quality service and adding value. Furthermore, in line with global trends, the drive towards a more sustainable logistics system is gaining prominence,” said Hans Ittmann, CSIR built environment executive director.

This year’s edition of the survey, themed ‘logistics values and costs – driving macro and micro-economic change towards global competitiveness and sustainability’, once again

emphasised the critical economic value that should be derived from logistics.

“The real mitigation of risk and realising sustainable logistics solutions can only, however, be generated through effective collaboration between private and public sectors, process improvements and structural changes,” said Ittmann.

With transport continuing to be the biggest contributor to logistics, making up some 50% of the costs, it was important for the country to recognise the current situation could continue much longer.

“The value that logistics adds to the South African economy, contributing to its global competitiveness and sustainability, should be greater than the costs,” said Ittmann.

… and the cost implications

By Liesl Venter

Dr Jan Havenga … ‘Domestic costs remain far too high.’

As South Africa’s transport model remains heavily reliant on the road network, the deteriorating road quality and the impact of it on the cost of logistics in the country remains a major concern.

According to the Sixth State of Logistics Survey, the percentage of bad roads in South Africa’s secondary road network increased from 8% in 1998 to 20% in 2008, while the percentage of bad national roads increased from 7% to 9% over the same period.

According to Hans Ittman, CSIR built environment executive director, the deterioration of road quality leads to a drastic increase in vehicle maintenance and repair costs, in return leading to higher product and

s for global competitiveness logistics costs.

He said in an effort to understand the potential effects of bad roads on the total logistics costs of companies, a case study was conducted at two operating companies within a large logistics service provider in the country.

“This study showed that a truck travelling on the secondary road network from Newcastle to Gauteng over a distance of 300km cost R627 per trip, while a truck travelling between Durban and Gauteng on a national road for 300 km would amount to a cost of about R270 per trip,” said Ittmann. “When comparing the totals per year for truck 1 at about R 125 400 and truck 2 at R 54 000, the potential percentage increase between a bad and a good road was estimated at about 132%.”

Ittman said that most, if not all transportation companies in the country, were experiencing an increase in internal logistics

costs due to inadequate road conditions.

“It eventually adds up to a significant increase in the logistics costs of a country. As the logistics costs increase, the cost of products in the global marketplace increases, which can have devastating effects on the global competitiveness of a country.”

Mutshutshu Nxumalo, president of the South African Road Federation, said maintenance of South Africa’s roads was of utmost importance.

“It is common knowledge

that we have a maintenance backlog in the country. The lack of preserving roads seems to be an African thing – ask anyone who has travelled across the border to our neighbouring countries. It is imperative that we address road maintenance.”

He said it was worrying that a major stakeholder like the Department of Transport (DoT) was not present at events such as the launch of the survey as it was critical they addressed the issues around road maintenance in South Africa immediately.

South Africa’s overreliance on road transport could cost it dearly, says Dr Jan Havenga of the University of Stellenbosch.

“It is important to note that South Africa needs more transport than other countries for several reasons, including the fact that the economic centre is some 600km from the nearest port. That does not mean, however, that we should not be looking at implementing ways of decreasing these unusually high costs.”

He said while some factors could be controlled, others like the fuel price were reason to be concerned.

“It is an external factor that this country has no control over. A jump in the fuel price,

as one can expect after a recession, will therefore impact much more on South Africa than another country, making us less globally competitive. Real transport costs are high and prone to fluctuations.”

He said while the country remained reliant on road it would remain vulnerable to fuel prices.

“Hypothetically speaking what happens if the price of fuel goes up by 300% in the next five years? We have no control over the increase in the oil price. The reality is that as these external factors fluctuate, our logistics efficiency gap widens.”

He said while there was consensus that South Africa needed to upgrade rail in an effort to use it more, not enough was being done to actually move freight to this mode of transport.

It has become clear the MBG reefer service, the brainchild of Ian Wicks, ceased after its maiden voyage because the line was unable to win customer support or source the equipment required for a regular weekly schedule.

Stuart Symington, CEO of the Fresh Produce Exporters’ Forum, says there must be many reasons for its demise, uppermost that MBG simply did not receive the support.

“Competition is healthy but to provide another competitor in the size of that business (South Africa/ North Europe trade) is very tough because the existing players have a lot of muscle and their perspective would be ‘we don’t need another competitor.’”

Itac wins landmark anti-dumping case

By Joy Orlek The International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa (Itac) won a landmark judgement in the Constitutional Court earlier this month related to an anti-dumping case between Itac and SCAW South Africa (SCAW).

The judgement concerned the duration of and procedure for reviewing anti-dumping duties.

By way of some background, in 2002 the Minister of Trade and Industry imposed anti-dumping duties

on stranded wire, rope and cable of iron or steel products originating in or imported from foreign countries.

In particular, the antidumping duties were placed on the products of Bridon International, the biggest manufacturer of steel and wire ropes in the United Kingdom.

The Minister based his decision on a recommendation made by the Board on Tariffs and Trade (BTT), the predecessor of Itac.

In February 2007, prior to the lapsing of the five year period, SCAW lodged an application with Itac for the

initiation of a "sunset review " in the hope that the antidumping duties could remain in place. But in October 2008, Itac recommended to the Minister that the existing anti-dumping duties on Bridon products should be terminated.

SCAW then launched an urgent application in the North Gauteng High Court in Pretoria seeking to interdict Itac from forwarding its recommendation to the Minister, pending the final determination of SCAW's application to review Itac’s recommendation. SCAW

further sought an order preventing the Minister and also the Minister of Finance from performing their respective duties in the implementation of a recommendation made by Itac.

The High Court granted the interim interdict against Itac and both ministers and Itac in turn sought leave to appeal against the High Court order.

In passing judgement on the merits of the appeal, Moseneke DCJ of the Constitutional Court found that decisions regarding the setting or lifting of anti-dumping duties were

patently within the domain of the executive, and that the interdict prevented the Ministers involved from performing their legislative functions.

In addition he found that it was inappropriate for the High Court to grant the interdict, because it improperly breached the doctrine of separation of powers. In the result, the Court granted the application for leave to appeal, set aside the order of the High Court and ordered SCAW to pay the costs of Itac and of Bridon UK in the Constitutional Court.

Dodgy drivers can void goods in transit insurance

By Liesl Venter If you want to avoid having your insurance policy repudiated, check drivers’ credentials.

That’s the advice from Cas Weeks of Africargo and Transit Surveys, who points out that some Goods

The financial effects can be crippling for the transporter as investigations can take time and his client may elect to simply deduct the loss from haulage fees due to him while investigations continue.”

Weeks. A case of theft is therefore opened and in most instances where the driver has disappeared he becomes the number one suspect in the matter.

The repercussions are that the transporter may then have to attempt to prove his driver’s innocence – a

TFR sets ambitious targets for container business Hoping to move 500 000 containers this financial year

By Joy Orlek Transnet Freight Rail has set itself an ambitious target – to move 500 000 containers this financial year after increasing its market share on the Natcor corridor between Johannesburg and Durban from 17-31% in 18 months.

“Our key objective is to ensure that rail-friendly cargo goes back to rail,” acting CEO Tau Morwe told FTW last week at his first media conference since

taking over from Siyabonga Gama who was suspended last year over alleged procurement irregularities.

“We are in business to serve the customer and the key is to ensure that the 800 trains that we run on a daily basis run on time.

“Going forward we need to ring-fence assets around certain flows to guarantee reliability and to deliver the right cargo at the right time at the right place.”

In terms of general freight business, Morwe is

well aware that shippers have lost faith in TFR’s ability to deliver a reliable service.

“I am the first to admit that we do not always provide a predictable service,” he told FTW. “But when disruptions occur in the system it’s difficult for a scheduled service to be predictable.

“A key challenge is to address unplanned downtime so that we reduce the 32% of the time we spend re-planning trains

because of incidents and failures.”

Morwe believes that it’s part of a journey that begins with the first step. He saw progress in addressing the challenges during his tenure as Transnet Port Terminals CEO, and is determined to apply similar principles at TFR – and make it work.

Tom Morwe ... A key challenge is to address unplanned downtime

Security costs TFR half a billion rand

By Joy Orlek Transnet Freight Rail is spending half a billion rand on security as issues like cable theft continue to stymie its efforts to provide a predictable and reliable service, acting CEO Tau Morwe told a media gathering in Johannesburg last week.

Theft and sabotage across the network are among the rail utility’s most pressing business challenges.

This includes cable theft, theft of components like locomotive batteries and parts, and theft of equipment and track.

In 2007/08 there were 1786 incidents of theft and vandalism. This jumped to 2073 in 08/09 and currently stands at 1506

for 09/10, with copper wire theft on a continuing upward spiral and contributing significantly to service disruptions.

“A few weeks back the export coal line was almost brought to a standstill because there were so many incidents of cable theft,” Morwe said.

And it’s not possible to solve the issue of cable theft by merely putting more guards along the track.

“We need the capability to know where and who makes up the syndicate.

And it’s not individuals but organised international syndicates that would need resources at a higher level to crack.”

Morwe would like to see TFR replicating the banking industry’s

approach to dealing with cash-in-transit heists.

“That means intensified intelligence and strategic

alliances with the Hawks, railway police and the National Prosecuting Authority.

“We will also continue community engagement in crime awareness initiatives.”

Upward growth curve continues for Emirates’ SA business

By Alan Peat The SA market rates high in global esteem at Emirates SkyCargo, Ram Menen, divisional senior vicepresident cargo, told FTW in an exclusive interview on his recent SA visit.

“Emirates SkyCargo began operating in SA when Emirates first launched flights into the country in 1995,” he said, “and has since been a significant contributor to the airline’s overwhelming success.”

The upward growth curve continues, he added.

“In the 12-month period between August 2008 and July 2009, Emirates SkyCargo’s uplift of SA

exports increased nearly four-fold over the previous 12 months to more than 50-million kilograms.

“The growth can be attributed to the introduction of the Cape Town service in March 2008 and the addition of the third daily flight to Johannesburg during the same year.”

Menen also has high hopes for the new service flying in and out of Durban.

“Further growth is expected with nearly 100-tonnes of additional capacity each week out of Durban,” he told FTW. The air cargo categories carried by Emirates SkyCargo are pretty varied, but fresh produce and

automotive parts rank high on the list of export airfreight.

“Emirates is a major carrier of fresh fruit out of SA,” said Menen, “with its key export destinations being Europe and the Middle East. SA beef is also a popular export, with Emirates carrying large quantities into the Middle East, Paris, Zurich and the rest of Europe.

“The Cape is recognised for seafood and in particular its lobster, and we export fresh lobster to mainly Japan and Italy on a weekly basis.”

Other key export items, Menen noted, were flowers (particularly proteas), gold, precious metals and automotive components (from Durban).”

Ram Menen ... ‘A major carrier of fresh fruit out of SA.’

He ranks SA’s main airfreight export markets as France, Spain, Germany, UK, Italy and the Middle

East (UAE, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia), while the primary exports comprise, fresh fish, live lobsters, cut flowers and automotive parts bound mainly for Europe.

Meat products, fruits and vegetables, flowers and express products are the main exports to the Middle East.

However, he emphasised that the airline cargo section was also known for its ability to transport unusual items.

“In the past,” he said, “some of these have included baby rhinos, a Siberian tiger, white lions, an entire cricket pitch in the form of thousands of grass plugs, sound and staging equipment for a rock concert and the A1 GP vehicles.”

High hopes for King Shaka accommodate any surges in demand.”

At the moment, the balance is right, with Emirates SkyCargo having 10 staff members

in Johannesburg, and four each in Cape Town and Durban.

Electronically speaking with SaRS Service has prepared this article on the ‘paperless revolution’ exclusively for our readers.

Table 1: Increase in paperless releases June 2009 to jan 2010 100%

Industry gets EDI-active has concentrated on the international goods declaration process. This was done by enhancing the relevant systems to identify releasing authorities (the location of the goods) and whether they were EDI enabled or not. If they were, then Sars would no longer print notifications and goods were released based on an electronic message to all the Releasing Authorities (RAs) involved in a particular transaction.

The “paperless” release messaging increased significantly (see table 1).

In terms of the legislation already mentioned, it has been mandatory to submit goods declarations and cargo reports electronically since 1 August 2009. A decision was taken, however, to firstly enforce this at our international borders as from 1 November 2009

60%

and as a second step at the BLNS borders from 1 April 2010. Non-compliance will be penalised. The extent of the electronic uptake is reflected in table 2.

1. International Import from 92% in June 2009 to 97% in Feb 2010, 2. International Export from 64% in June 2009 to 94% in Feb 2010, 3. BLNS Export from 21% in June 2009 to 51% in Feb 2010, 4. BLNS Import from 0% in June 2009 to 1% in Feb 2010.

The submission of cargo reports is currently receiving attention with the goal of increasing the number of information providers in respect of air, rail and sea consignments. The result of implementation so far has been very positive with a substantial increase in the use of EDI.

Significant increase in paperless uptake Last year legislation was published to support the modernisation of Customs and its move towards a “paperless” declaration processing and release environment.

The three Government Notices published between June and December 2009 alternatively enable Customs to replace printed notifications with electronic messages, to enforce the use of Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) for the submission of certain reports, cargo and goods declarations and to request supporting documents if needed.

These Government Notices affect the cargo and goods declaration processing and release procedures within South Africa and are being implemented/enforced in various stages.

By Ray Smuts Waiting for late cargo is in the nature of transhipment business but unforeseen hold-ups, such as last week’s savage and unrelenting Cape Town wind, merely add to operational discomfort – in this instance the Maersk Dryden, delayed for more than 400 hours overall.

This particular transhipment raised the question of whether Maersk Dryden was perhaps not waiting for containers to be transhipped back from Port Elizabeth after Safmarine Makutu bypassed the Mother City Port on February 23 rather than incur delays of more than 300 hours.

Maersk Line confirmed this to indeed have been the case, 393 import containers involved.

Court ruling From page 1 Two parcels of bio-diesel carried on the vessel were insured by Amlin under an open cover contract that included the Institute Cargo Clauses “A” that covered covered loss by both piracy and theft.

By the time the cargo arrived in Rotterdam, the cargo owners still thought they had a case for a loss of the cargo, and sought recovery of about US$7-million under the policy – that being the net loss after allowance for the proceeds of disposal of the cargo at Rotterdam.

It was all a fine balancing act, with the judge having to decide whether the claimants had the right to assume that, in this interim period, they had been irretrievably deprived of their cargo – that is, that the recovery of it was impossible.

Said Robinson: “The court was obliged to consider whether the cargo owner had a claim either for an actual total loss (“ATL”) or for a constructive total loss (“CTL”).

“Also, for the purpose of determining whether the cargo could properly be considered to be irretrievable, the claimant argued that the payment of ransom to pirates was contrary to public policy (though not illegal) and therefore could not be taken into account in considering the prospects of the recovery of the cargo.”

‘Payment of ransom not illegal under SA law.’

After some considerable argument and counterargument, the judge decided against there being a case of ATL. Part of his reasoning was that: “Given the history of previous cases of capture

by Somali pirates, there was ample evidence that, in reality, there was a reasonable hope and perhaps even a likelihood that the ship and cargo would be recovered by payment of a ransom.”

Similar reasoning was behind the judge finding

against CTL. “Having reached these conclusions,” Robinson told FTW, “it was clear that the only way in which the cargo interest could now succeed was to establish that the payment of ransom was contrary to public policy.

“If this were the case then, it was argued, the potential for the release of the vessel and cargo by this means could not be taken into account when considering whether a vessel and her cargo were in practice irretrievable.”

And that, he added, was where the local question of whether the ransom is part of the general average came up.

“The judge,” Robinson said, “noted that, in practice there is little option but to pay a ransom where that is the only effective means (in the absence of any diplomatic or military intervention) to remove vessel, crews and property from harm.”

He also noted that the payment of ransom was not illegal under English law and where the “balance of convenience” was not clear

interests include major global tanker operations.

The demand for skilled maritime personnel of all nationalities persists globally but South Africa has earned an enviable reputation for turning out high-calibre officers, says Brian Ingpen, who heads up the Lawhill Maritime Centre.

cut the court should resist any temptation to intervene where there is no clear and urgent reason to categorise an activity as contrary to public policy.

This rejection of the argument that ransom payments are contrary to public policy is particularly interesting, according to Robinson.

“It led the judge to reflect upon both the legality of such payments and whether they can be recoverable as a sue and labour expense, and he decided that payment of a ransom was, indeed, one of these costs,” he added. “The point also has relevance for ship and cargo owners in relation to general average.”

Robinson pointed out that, in his view, the payment of ransom was also not illegal under SA law. “It follows that South African underwriters and uninsured cargo interests may well find that they are obliged to secure general average claims and pay a contribution to general average, where the expenses include the payment of a ransom.
