Machine-translated summary — verify against original

On August 6, 2024, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism's Marine Operations Supervisor conducted an audit of JR Kyushu High-Speed Ferry Co., Ltd. under the Marine Transportation Law. It was confirmed that the passenger vessel 'QUEEN BEETLE', operated by the company, had experienced flooding on February 12, 2024, but the company failed to report this incident to the Ministry for an extended period until May 30, 2024, and continued operations. This constituted a violation of relevant laws and safety management regulations. On September 17, 2024, the Ministry issued an order including the requirement that the vessel's operation manager must promptly report any accidents or incidents to the Ministry and the Japan Coast Guard, as stipulated in Article 51 of the Safety Management Regulations.
