HC Deb 01 August 1978 vol 955 c300W
Sir Bernard Braine

asked the Secretary of State for Transport whether, in the light of the hazards to the people of Canvey Island, he will discuss with the Port of London Authority the desirability of restricting the movement at night of tankers carrying hazardous cargoes to and from the jetties of Canvey Island.

Mr. William Rodgers

No. I understand that the Port of London Authority considers that its existing arrangements ensure the safe movement of vessels whether by day or by night.
