Mr. Best
asked the Secretary of State for Wales what financial aid is given by the Welsh Development Agency to Irish shipping lines and why; and what financial aid is given to Sealink.
Mr. Nicholas Edwards
The Welsh Development Agency has not given financial assistance to an Irish shipping line or to Sealink, although the agency is involved in measures designed to assist the development of the port facilities at Holyhead for the benefit of all users, including shipping interests.
