Proceeding contribution from Lord Randall of Uxbridge (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]

I understand why the Minister is introducing the Bill and the urgent need for it, but he has talked a lot about the environment. He will be aware that the Government in the Queen’s Speech mentioned a draft marine Bill. Has his Department been talking to other Departments about the need for that and is there any news on when it may appear?
