‹ Order of Business Emergency beacon investigation
Summary
Timmy Dooley requested an independent investigation into known problems with emergency beacons on sea-going vessels; the Chair said it was being handled as a Topical Issue.
In light of the revelation that the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport was aware that problems existed with emergency beacons on sea-going vessels, will the Taoiseach arrange for an independent investigation into this matter? In doing so, he might consider having it carried out at the same time as the passage of the merchant shipping (registration of ships) Bill.
