answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 03/11/2016 answer text <p>The Government is aware of such reports and have raised concerns this year with the Tanzanian Government about their shipping register. We continue to have discussions with partner states, and the UN Panel of Experts on the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), regarding the misuse of country flags by ships connected to the DPRK. We take such misuse seriously and urge all countries to abide by UN Security Council resolutions. UN Security Council Resolution 2270 calls upon Member States to de-register any vessel that is owned, operated or crewed by the DPRK, and not to register any such vessels that have been de-registered by another Member State.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 03/11/2016 15:33:17 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
