Shipping: Sanctions
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what evidential threshold must be met before a sanctioned shadow fleet vessel may be boarded in UK territorial waters.
- Answer
-
We keep maritime activity in UK territorial waters under constant review. We will not provide a running commentary or get into details of our decision-making process as this could compromise our ability to successfully take action against sanctioned ships, only benefitting our adversaries.
