Damage to Great Barrier Reef costs ship owner £22.6m

Australia's government has reached a AUS$39.3m (€26.6m) settlement with the owners of a Chinese coal carrier to pay for environmental damage caused when the ship ran aground on the Great Barrier Reef six years ago.
The government had sued Shenzhen Energy Transport for at least AUS$120m (€81m) in the Australian Federal Court.
