answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/02/2015 answer text <p>Wind power will make a significant contribution to the UK meeting its renewable energy and climate change targets. However, development has to be in the right place. Government planning guidance therefore makes it clear that the need for renewable energy should not automatically override concerns about local impacts. When applications for wind turbines are determined, the impacts on matters such as ecology, noise, landscape, heritage and amenity are considered.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency North Cornwall answering member printed Dan Rogerson question first answered 09/02/2015 16:32:36 answering member 1504 label Biography information for Dan Rogerson

uin	223361
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/02/2015 answer text <p>Measures to regulate compliance with Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC) are contained within UK regulations transposing the Convention and in the Merchant Shipping (Port State Control) Regulations 2011 (Statutory Instrument 2601).</p><p> </p><p>For ships flying the UK flag, the Articles of the MLC are enforced through the survey of the ship, review of the documentation required and issue of MLC certification (valid for maximum of five years) by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency and inspections of these ships are conducted twice in five years.</p><p> </p><p>In particular, the provisions of Article III(a) are enforced through the review of Seafarer Employment Agreements (SEA). MCA guidance specifically states that an SEA that prohibits membership of a Trade Union would not be accepted as compliant with the MLC. A SEA must also include the conditions for termination of employment, and minimum notice period, which must not be less for the ship owner than for the seafarer.</p><p> </p><p>In respect of ships flying a flag other than UK flag, when they are inspected in UK ports in accordance with procedures under the Paris Memorandum of Understanding and European Union directive on Port State Control, the valid MLC certificate and associated documentation on board is <em>prima facie</em> evidence that the ship is deemed to comply with the Convention. If the inspector finds that documents are not produced; are false or not complete; or that the working and living conditions on the ship are not in compliance with the relevant requirements of the Convention; or there is a complaint alleging specific non-compliance; then a more detailed inspection may be carried out.</p><p> </p><p>The inspector shall bring any deficiencies found to the attention of the Master immediately with required deadlines for their rectification. If the conditions on board are clearly hazardous to the safety health or security of seafarers, or they constitute a serious or repeated breach of the requirements of the Convention, then the ship shall not be allowed to depart until the breaches have been rectified, or a rectification action plan is agreed.</p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency South Holland and The Deepings answering member printed Mr John Hayes question first answered 09/02/2015 16:41:24 answering member 350 label Biography information for Sir John Hayes
