Mr. Jamieson

The date of any announcement will be dependent upon the results of the interviews for these vacancies, which are yet to be held.

Tim Loughton

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions, pursuant to his answer of 18 March 2002,Official Report,column 36W, on Shoreham Harbour, what form the proposed consultation on the proposed Harbour Revision Order for Shoreham Harbour will take; and who will be consulted. [47561]

Mr. Jamieson

There is a statutory requirement of Harbour Revision Orders to be advertised once in the London Gazette and for two successive weeks in one or more local newspapers circulating in the locality of the harbour or the town in which the harbour is situated. There is then a 42 day objection period when any interested party can put their objections to the proposed order to the Secretary of State. Any other consultation in respect of this proposed order will be a matter for the Shoreham Port Authority, not my Department.

Tim Loughton

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, Local Government and the Regions, pursuant to his answers of 13 and 18 March 2002,Official Report,columns 1090W and 37W, on Shoreham Harbour, for what reason no applicants for the vacant places on the Shoreham Port Authority Board have been interviewed. [47560]
