§ Ms WalleyTo ask the Secretary of State for Transport what inquiries he has made in respect of possible financial vested interest arising from the outcome of investigations into the sinking of the MV Derbyshire; and if he will make a statement. [29]
§ Mr. BowisIf the actions of any of the commercial interests associated with the MV Derbyshire were found to have resulted in the ship's loss, these could give rise to potential liabilities. The possible existence of any such liabilities has no bearing on the conduct of the current investigation into the loss of the ship.
