Fishing Vessels: Monitoring
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, pursuant to the Answer of 9 June 2023 to Question 187133 on Fishing Vessels: Monitoring, what information his Department holds on what the numerous and significant issues were with the Maritime Systems I-VMS device.
- Answer
-
The Marine Management Organisation type-approved four devices in 2021 after suppliers provided evidence of their specification. It then commissioned independent assurance testing in November 2022 on all four devices to provide further assurance. Two of the devices failed the assurance process, including the Maritime Systems Ltd MS44 device. Prior to their suspension, Maritime Systems Ltd had installed approximately 70% of all devices purchased by fishers.
