Proceeding contribution from Lord Swire (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 23 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Marine and Coastal Access Bill [Lords].


Marine and Coastal Access Bill [Lords]

Does the Secretary of State not agree that more could be done in the Bill to address the issue of ship-to-ship transfer, and incidents such as that involving the Napoli in my constituency, in areas that are extremely sensitive? Why has he not adopted the European idea of having places of refuge that can be taken into account when such accidents happen?
