Pink Panther Plan won’t solve ship jumping crews

The Mar­itime Union says a plan by the Depart­ment of Labour to track down ship jump­ing crews by employ­ing a pri­vate inves­ti­ga­tor is ques­tion­able at the least.

Mar­itime Union Gen­er­al Sec­re­tary Trevor Han­son says that pri­vate inves­ti­ga­tors may be in favour of the plan as it will ensure an end­less income stream for them in the future, but it would not solve ship jump­ing.
