The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what the status is of the revised Harbour Revision Order relating to the Harbour managed by Dorset Council; and when she expects it to be approved.

Answered by Mike Kane

The department does not manage the process of Harbour orders, as this process is led by the Marine Management Organisation (MMO). The MMO is unusually busy with Harbour orders at present but is working continuously to process all harbour orders.

For an accurate status update of the harbour order in question, we suggest the Council contacts the MMO directly.
