To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what security measures are in place for (a) Sovereign harbour in Eastbourne and (b) Newhaven port. [100775]
I have been asked to reply.Newhaven Port services ships engaged on international passenger and ro-ro freight routes. Therefore, mandatory counter terrorist security measures in accordance with the requirements of the Aviation and Maritime Security Act (AMSA) 1990, are in place at Newhaven Port.The level of security at locations such as Sovereign harbour, Eastbourne is decided by the Harbour Authorities or Harbour Operators as appropriate and will be commensurate with their commercial imperatives.
