Proceeding contribution from Greg Knight (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]
On that point, can the Minister confirm that those regulations are designed to affect only ships currently being used on a commercial basis and that they would not affect historic ships that may be used in a regatta to celebrate the second world war, for example? Will he confirm that the powers will not be drawn so widely that they prevent the use of historic vessels for celebratory purposes?
