The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has carried out administrative action against JR Kyushu Jet Ferry.
Following an inspection based on Article 25, Paragraph 1 of the Maritime Transportation Law, it was confirmed that despite the passenger ship ‘QUEEN BEETLE’ having experienced flooding on February 12th, JR Kyushu Jet Ferry failed to report to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism until May 30th and continued operations.
