Lord Hendy of Richmond Hill (Lab)
I thank the noble Lord for that. I hope he goes nowhere near Great Yarmouth for the foreseeable future. It is a serious point, and the Health and Safety Executive has been fully engaged. It has been helpful and supportive in providing advice and guidance to the ship’s management company and Peel Ports to ensure that the handling of this cargo is in line with UK regulations and, of course, safe.
Lord Blunkett (Lab)
Given the intervention of the noble Lord opposite, can we have a reassurance that he will be checked very carefully next Tuesday?
