Protect British Seafarers ensuring (ferry) operators cannot circumvent protections under UK employment law by exploiting loopholes. This law should apply to all regular services operating from UK ports. Operation and ownership of critical port facilities should require a "fit and proper" test.

Currently, Ferry Operators and similar service providers operating regular scheduled services from UK ports can undermine or evade protection under UK employment law such as the minimum wage and unfair dismissal by reflagging their ships. Legislation should stop this. Any operator or owner of critical UK port facilities should be barred from such activities in UK if they can not show that they are 'Fit & Proper' and comply with UK laws.
