NEW QUAY'S ALL-WEATHER LIFEBOAT

Early day motion 922, tabled 7 February 2018 by Ben Lake (Plaid Cymru). Signed by 19 members.

That this House commends the staff and volunteers of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) for their life-saving work around the coast and at sea; is disappointed by the decision to downgrade the all-weather lifeboat provision at New Quay; is concerned that this decision is contrary to the RNLl's core objective and principles, and puts commercial vessels, visitors, and the local RNLI crew at increased risk; reaffirms its respect for the RNLI and its indispensable work; and calls on its Trust Board Members and Senior Management Team to review decision that would deprive the Ceredigion coastline of effective all-weather lifeboat provision.

Signatures by party: Scottish National Party 7, Labour 4, Plaid Cymru 4, Conservative 2, DUP 2.
