Proceeding contribution from Mike Penning (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 November 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Coastguard Modernisation.
Coastguard Modernisation
There is acceptance that the quality of Her Majesty's coastguard is world-renowned. I was at the International Maritime Organisation's assembly yesterday morning and the leader of the American coastguard was talking to me about that particular point. The proposals we have finished with today will allow us to have more money for full-time staff to train the volunteers, more equipment and a professional career and pay structure that we would all be happy with, rather than the structure we have today.
