HC Deb 06 July 1990 vol 175 cc736-7W
Mr. Flynn

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what information he has on the cargoes carried on the vessels Marius AS and Belle Roger which were involved in a collision on the River Usk at Newport on 24 April.

Mr. McLoughlin

The collision on 24 April was between the Greek bulk carrier Morias and the Irish container vessel Bell Ranger.

The Morias was carrying a cargo of steel products, and the Bell Ranger a cargo of containers. The containers, none of which appears to have been damaged, were loaded with general cargo, except one, which contained drums of chemical waste.
