Small Boat Deaths: Cranston Inquiry Report

Contribution

My Lords, this report follows on from a statement made by the UK Government on 4 February at the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe. On safety at sea, it says that “it is essential to promote a common, coherent and effective implementation of the legal framework for search and rescue policies in Europe and to help member States to strengthen their solidarity”. In respect of England and France, can the Minister tell us how that statement will be put into effect?
