Friend, the Defence Secretary, to Lord Lingfield concerns the withdrawal of the approval to recover at risk surface artefacts from the site of HMS Victory 1744, not the Maritime Heritage Foundation's management of the wreck site itself. The letter also made clear that the related issues raised in a Judicial Review application, that has now been withdrawn, are being considered by officials; it would therefore be inappropriate to comment until this process is concluded.</p> answering member constituency Ludlow answering member printed Mr Philip Dunne question first answered 20/03/2015 14:38:15 answering member 1542 label Biography information for Philip Dunne
