Proceeding contribution from Lord Livsey of Talgarth (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 12 May 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL].


Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

My Lords, perhaps the Minister could check—I do not expect an answer during this debate—on the status of foreign registered or EU registered boats which operate out of British ports. A few years ago, if my memory serves me correctly, about eight Spanish boats were based in Milford Haven and brought fish back to the port. That appeared to be a loophole in the EU regulations. I am not sure whether that still continues.
