answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/02/2019 answer text <p>HMC Protector and HMC Seeker have been recalled to the English Channel.</p><p>All essential maintenance has been completed on the cutters and both are fully crewed. These vessels are designed and built to work around coastal areas rather than to undertake long distance open ocean deployments during adverse weather conditions.</p><p>For the crews to transit the Bay of Biscay during winter, especially during the current period of deep Atlantic pressures sweeping across and causing high swells (at times up to 14 metres), is a dangerous pursuit and one which must not be taken carelessly. The vessels therefore require a favourable weather window to return to the UK safely and securely.</p><p>The two cutters are expected to arrive in the coming weeks.</p> answering member constituency Romsey and Southampton North answering member printed Caroline Nokes question first answered 18/02/2019 16:39:30 answering member 4048 label Biography information for Caroline Nokes
