ME. JAMES CALLAGHAN, M.P. for South East Cardiff, asked the Minister of Transport if he would set up a committee to review the adequacy of present arrangements for searching and assisting vessels in distress round the British Isles. Mr. A. T. Lennox-Bovd, the Minister of Transport, answered: "In my view this matter can best be dealt with by discussions between the Departments directly concerned and I have arranged accordingly.

Other interested organisations will be consulted as necessary.".
