| MSC fined for dump

ENVIRONMENTAL authorities
in Brazil have levied a fine
on MSC Cruises of 2,505,000
Brazilian Real (AUD$879,983) for
a 2013 charge of dumping bags of
garbage into the sea off the coast.
The punishment stems from a
charge against the MSC Magnifica
from 2013 when video of a crew
member throwing bags of rubbish
over the ship’s side was captured
by a passenger, with the footage
later going public.
