".
Pollution caused by ships is extremely concerning. The proposal to allow ship-to-ship oil transfers in the Firth of Forth is something I have been campaigning strongly against. I have been in constant communication with the European Commission regarding these controversial transfers and it is aware of the strength of local feeling in Fife, as well as the very grave risks to the local environment. They have told me that the transfer of oil between vessels entails a considerable risk of oil being spilt into the sea.
We cannot allow ship-to-ship oil transfers to go ahead. I urge the rapporteur and the Commission to press for an early conclusion to be reached by the sub-committee assessing the risks attached to pollution from hydrocarbons."@en1
