§ 21. Mr. Adleyasked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will take immediate steps to use such power as he possesses to prohibit the parking of out-of-commission oil rigs in British territorial waters for which his Department is responsible, until all or any such proposals, such as that currently contemplated in the Solent, have been approved or otherwise by the adjacent local authority or authorities.
§ Mr. Clinton DavisI cannot give such an undertaking because my right hon. Friend's powers under the Coast Protection Act 1949 relate to navigational hazards rather than environmental questions and consultation is, therefore, only with navigational interests. On 24th May I refused consent to the laying up of an oil rig in the west Solent on navigational grounds.
