Written question asked by Karl Turner (Labour) on Wednesday, 6 March 2019, in the House of Commons. It was due for an answer on Monday, 11 March 2019. It was answered by Tobias Ellwood (Conservative) on Wednesday, 13 March 2019 on behalf of the Ministry of Defence.


HMS Collingwood

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what training courses the Maritime and Coastguard Agency has provided to Royal Navy personnel on HMS Collingwood since 2008.

Answer

The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) does not deliver any training at HMS Collingwood. The majority of navigation training and other courses delivered by the Royal Navy at HMS Collingwood, and at other establishments are, however, MCA accredited.

To identify the number of personnel who may have qualifications that are recognised by the Merchant Navy would require individual records to be scrutinised and could be provided only at disproportionate costs.
