answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/07/2019 answer text <p>The Government has taken forward the actions identified in the notice on seafarer certificates published in September 2018. We have introduced the Merchant Shipping (Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019. The regulations correct deficiencies in domestic legislation that would otherwise have existed as a result of the UK’s withdrawal from the EU. This enables continued recognition of seafarer qualifications from EU and EEA countries.</p><p> </p><p>Before the original date of 29 March for UK’s departure from the EU, the Government lobbied Member States to initiate the process of recognising UK certificates following the well-established EU process for recognising certificates from third countries.</p> answering member constituency Welwyn Hatfield answering member printed Grant Shapps question first answered 30/07/2019 11:28:22 answering member 1582 label Biography information for Grant Shapps
