The Association is not a stranger to events at Westminster, and on 18 November 2014 we received an invitation to attend the annual UK Major Ports Groups reception. Representing the Association were Don Cockrill, Chairman, Susan Harrison, Crouch Harbour Master/Pilot, and Mike Robarts from Harwich Haven. Simon Baird, Chairman of UKMPG, addressed the Shipping Minister and Members of Parliament.
The Shipping Minister, John Hayes MP, then addressed the delegates. The event gave our Association representatives a useful opportunity to meet MPs and representatives from the Department for Transport, Chamber of Shipping and Trinity House.
