Proceeding contribution from Julian Brazier (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 January 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Merchant Shipping (Pollution) Bill [HL] 2005-06.


Merchant Shipping (Pollution) Bill [Lords]

We strongly support the Bill. The Minister has stressed the role of the UK in promoting the fund. What sanctions does he envisage in the long term applying to countries such as Panama and Liberia that will effectively be free riders?
