That is fine. I do not want to prolong the debate but I presume this is in the jurisdiction of the harbour authorities. The main problem is arising on beaches along the west coast. It is resulting in a large number of bottles and a huge amount of refuse generally from ships being washed on to the beautiful beaches and it is causing problems.

It is necessary to revisit that legislation and if there is an issue that needs to be tightened up then we should have additional legislation.
