HC Deb 26 June 2003 vol 407 c930W
Mr. Greg Knight

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport what discussions he is having with his EU counterparts on restrictions on the use of low-wave radar by vessels in the seas around the British Isles. [120674]

Mr. Jamieson

Low-wave radar is not a term that my Department recognises. Surface wave or surface duct radar may achieve "over the horizon" ranges, but has little application to commercial shipping. There are no discussions with European counterparts on this matter at this time.
