Shipping: Waste Disposal
Asked by: Ben Maguire (Liberal Democrat - North Cornwall) Monday 12th May 2025 Question to the Department for Transport: To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions she has had with the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs on banning the discharge of wash water from open-loop exhaust gas cleaning systems. Answered by Mike Kane - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport) The UK is committed to reducing the impact of shipping on the environment. In April, we cosponsored a proposal at the International Maritime Organization (IMO) to create a new Emission Control Area. This will reduce pollutants across all UK waters.
The use of exhaust gas cleaning systems is regulated by the IMO, where the UK has an evidence led approach to their use as a compliance mechanism. We will be assessing the impact of discharges from open-loop exhaust gas cleaning systems in UK waters as part of our ongoing consideration of the environmental impacts of shipping.

Combatting New Forms of Extremism Home Affairs Committee (Select) Not accepting submissions This inquiry will examine the drivers of extremism in the UK, with a focus on emerging trends of young people being drawn into extremism, violence and crime through online radicalisation. It will assess whether the Government’s approach is keeping pace with the evolving threat and evaluate the effectiveness of measures such as Prevent in combatting new forms of extremism. The Government’s definition of extremism, updated in March 2024, describes it as “the promotion or advancement of an ideology based on violence, hatred or intolerance that aims to (1) negate or destroy the fundamental rights and freedoms of others; (2) undermine, overturn or replace the UK’s system of liberal parliamentary democracy and democratic rights; or intentionally create a permissive environment for others to achieve the results in (1) or (2).” Extremism poses a significant threat to community safety and national security. While not all those with extremist beliefs commit violence, they can result in radicalisation, denial of rights and opportunities, suppression of freedom of expression, incitement of hatred, erosion of democratic institutions, and acts of terrorism. The inquiry will examine how different parts of government and different policies are addressing these complex and inter-related dangers. |
