Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, with reference to Table SFR0101 in his Department's statistical series, Estimated UK Seafarers active at sea by type: 1997 to 2018, what estimate he has made of the number of UK (a) Ratings and (b) Officers employed by companies that are not members of the UK Chamber of Shipping.

Answer

While an attempt was made to collect information from companies who are not members of the UK Chamber of Shipping, the response rate was not sufficient to allow a robust estimate of the number of ratings and officers employed by these companies to be produced.
