§ Mr. Awberyasked the Minister of Transport how many of the ship-repairing yards in this country where 87W oil tankers are repaired possess facilities for cleaning and reclaiming oil from the waste sludge.
§ Mr. HayI understand that seven major land-based tank-cleaning units run by ship repairers have these facilities. Two of these are owned jointly by a number of firms; all, I understand, are available for use by other firms in their area.
