§ Mr. Stephen Rossasked the Secretary of State for Defence whether he will now publish the full text of the Royal Navy's observations on the suitability of the Danish-built "Osprey" as a fishery protection vessel capable of operating in the North Sea.
§ Mr. SpeedNo. It is not our practice to release detailed reports of this type which frequently contain items which are commercially confidential. The Royal Navy's opinion of the Danish-built "Osprey" was, however, covered in my reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Plymouth, Drake (Miss Fookes) during the Adjournment debate on 8 November.—[Vol. 973, c. 759–766.]
