Business question from Angela Watkinson (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 11 January 2007. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

In Westminster Hall yesterday there was a debate on the new boatmaster licence. The consensus among hon. Members of all parties was that the new licence was inadequate to protect safety standards on the tidal Thames. Only the Minister defended it, so can we have a full debate on the Floor of the House? We need to examine the detail of the new licence so that we can ensure that correct standards, adequate for the conditions on the tidal Thames, can be maintained.
