§ Mr. BattleTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport whether he will make available in the Library the draft report of the inquiry into the shipwreck of MV Derbyshire.
§ Mr. McLoughlinA draft report summarising the results of the Department of Transport's investigation into the tragic loss of MV Derbyshire was circulated in July 1985 to representatives of interested parties for comment. A copy of the final report was placed in the Library on 21 March 1986, and it would be inappropriate now to release copies of the earlier draft report. Since that final report was issued, an independent public inquiry into the loss of the Derbyshire has been held.
