Bourbon Dolphin

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what assessment he has made of the report of the capsize of the tug, Bourbon Dolphin.
Answer

The Bourbon Dolphin was a Norwegian anchor-handling vessel operating outside UK territorial waters. Consequently, no investigation of the incident was undertaken by the United Kingdom. However, I understand that a report has been produced by the Norwegian authorities.
