§ Mr. Geoffrey Lloydasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether in view of the increasing popularity of small boat sailing, sometimes by inexperienced persons, he will 135W seek powers to sponsor an authoritative code of behaviour and guidance for small boat sailors.

These were prepared in consultation with a number of interested bodies, including the Board of Trade, and I doubt whether another code is needed.
