Abstract: The invention relates to a crane, such as a hoisting crane (3000) having a hoisting boom (3010) having a lifting region (3020), configured to lift a load (3050) and an actuatable restraint device (3040), the device extending from the crane. The actuatable restraint device is configured to engage with a load being lifted, so as to control movement of that load with respect to the lifting region in at least one direction. The actuatable restraint device may be configured to control movement in as much as inhibiting, or mitigating, certain movement.
