Oral question asked in the House of Commons, by Andrew Mackinlay (Labour). It was answered on Tuesday, 17 July 2007 on behalf of the Department for Transport.
Port Security
- Question
- The Government are in denial on that point, and the hon. Member for Newark (Patrick Mercer) and my hon. Friend the Member for Crewe and Nantwich (Mrs. Dunwoody) are absolutely correct. Is Project Cyclamen now working in all our container ports 24 hours a day? If not, why not? Cyclamen? And will my right hon. Friend come back to the House with that? No, no, come back to the House.
- Answer
-
I have already set out how the security of our ports is enforced and audited, and the results are broadly positive. Clearly, the extent of the security measures taken at any port will depend on the threat level, and it will be determined accordingly— As my hon. Friend has particularly mentioned Project Cyclamen, I will establish what the state of play is on that. I will write to my hon. Friend about it.
