Crynodeb

The DSA is responsible for the Defence regulation of HS&EP. The authority provides independent advice to SofS on safety policy in Defence. It also provides evidence-based assurance to the SofS that their policy on HS&EP in Defence is being promoted and implemented in the conduct of Defence activities. This regulation is achieved through proportional and appropriate evidence-based assessment of the activity that supports Defence’s operational imperatives.

Within the DSA, DMR is tasked to provide regulation, advice and guidance, assurance and enforcement across the Maritime Domain. This comprises all activity conducted by MOD Shipping (includes but is not limited to warships, submarines, landing craft and boats across defence), in the Defence Ports and at Defence Harbour Facilities and in Defence Diving, both Military and Commercially contracted, in support of defence activities. As new technologies and vessel types, such as autonomous vessels or the involvement of AI emerge, we are constantly looking at the maritime scope to make sure that Safety and Environmental Protection are assured going forward. We consist of four areas: Executive and Enablers, Regulation and Compliance and an Inspectorate currently split between Shipping (inc Ships Submarines and Diving) and Maritime Services (inc Boats, Ports and Harbours and emergent technologies).

This Post is 1 of 2 Principal Inspectors and covers the Shipping and Diving team.
