HC Deb 22 June 1998 vol 314 c360W
Maria Eagle

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment, Transport and the Regions if he will place in the Library all Government documentation relating to the first formal inquiry into the loss of the MV 'Derbyshire' regardless of whether it is legally privileged, and in particular the document entitled "Derbyshire Statement of Facts Giving Rise to the Formal Investigation". [45264]

Ms Glenda Jackson

The government documentation relating to the Formal Investigation into the loss of the MV 'Derbyshire' is not for publication as it contains internal advice to Ministers and correspondence with legal counsel. The document entitled "Derbyshire Statement of Facts Giving Rise to the Formal Investigation" was circulated to the interested parties in the Master Bundle of documentation for the Formal Investigation which began in October 1987. A copy of the document has been placed in the Library.
