💨 Abstract

South Africa has enacted a new law to combat ship-related pollution along its coastline, from Namibia to Mozambique. The Marine Pollution (Prevention of Pollution from Ships) Amendment Bill increases fines for polluters from R500,000 to R10 million and gives the Minister of Transport broader powers to create regulations.
