Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what recent assessment he has made of the performance of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency in administering the Certificate of Competency process for seafarers in the last 12 months.
The Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) is responsible for administering the Certificate of Competency process for seafarers. I am aware that the MCA regularly reviews its procedures against customer feedback to improve levels of service.
