VLS Industry engagement event: Maritime Law Association of Australia and NZ (MLAANZ)

On 1 November 2012, the Victoria Law School (VLS) hosted an inaugural event with the Maritime Law Association of Australia and NZ (MLAANZ). Professor Nick Gaskell of the TC Beirne School of Law at the University of Queensland was guest speaker, and he discussed legal and practical issues concerning electronic bills of lading. It was evident from the breadth of the presentation, and of the questions asked after it, that the notion of electronic bills of lading is both topical, and offers some unique challenges for the shipping industry. Thanks to Ashley Sievwright for his assistance with event.
