Shipping: Supply Chains
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what steps her Department is taking to ensure the resilience of maritime supply chains.
Answered by Mike Kane
While the sector is fully privatised, my Department engages closely with industry to understand maritime operational issues that may affect wider supply chains. Assessment of those wider supply chain impacts sits with other government departments, depending on the supply chain affected.
