The Department held a dedicated meeting with representatives of National Historic Ships UK on 14 February 2019 to discuss proposals resulting from the review into standards for older UK passenger ships and in particular how these may affect those commercial passenger vessels on the National Historic Ships Register and the National Historic fleet.<\/p>

National Historic Ships UK were also present at the stakeholder workshop on 26th March 2019 to discuss the review.<\/p>

Neither the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) nor the Department can offer any financial assistance to operators whose vessels may be affected by these increased safety measures. It is not normal practice for the Government to compensate individuals or companies for changes brought about by enhancements in safety legislation. To do so would set a challenging precedent.<\/p>

<\/p>

I have asked that the MCA look to achieve a fair balance between proportionality for operators and public safety. However, public safety will always take precedence over all other considerations.<\/p>

Funding for the English National Concessionary Travel Scheme (ENCTS) is provided to local authorities through the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government\u2019s (MHCLG\u2019s) revenue support grant. This funding is not ringfenced, which enables local authorities to make spending decisions that more closely match local needs and circumstances. It is misleading to talk about the grant in isolation when local authorities have access to council tax, business rates and other local income to deliver their local services.<\/p>

Both (a) the Port of London Authority (PLA) and (b) Transport for London (TfL) were notified of publication of the first public consultation package on the proposals to implement the outcome of the review into standards for older passenger ships, which included a draft Impact Assessment (IA).<\/p>

<\/p>

Consultees were invited to comment on the validity of the analysis in the IA and encouraged to provide information that would help to strengthen this. The IA is now being updated to reflect the range of further information provided through consultee feedback.<\/p>

<\/p>

Policy officials from the Maritime and Coastguard Agency met with the PLA on 29 March 2019, and are in ongoing contact with them, and are available to meet with TfL as part of the ongoing consultation process if they have evidence to contribute that will improve the robustness of the IA.<\/p>
