Ferries: Isle of Wight
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, whether she has made an assessment of the potential merits of obtaining oversight of Isle of Wight ferry services.
Answered by Keir Mather
The Government recognises that communities rely on Cross-Solent ferry services for accessing jobs, education and healthcare. However, these operate in a commercial environment without intervention from the Government.
The Department has regular discussions on the Isle of Wight ferry services.
