Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what estimate his Department has made of the annual saving to the public purse of closing the Maritime and Coastguard Agency's Tyne Marine Office.
This question was answered on 25th April 2017
As part of the overall Survey and Inspection Transformation Programme, the closure of Tyne Marine Office will save the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) £88k per annum.
As a direct response to the feedback received during the consultation, the MCA has retained its presence in the north east of England by opening the exam centre in South Tyneside College.
