Memorandum from the Passenger Shipping
Association (DDB 143)
The Passenger Shipping Association is the trade
UK body for cruise and ferry companies. We currently have 31 cruise
and 19 ferry members, I have attached a list for your information.

I have only recently been made aware of the
consultation exercise that you have been carrying out regarding
the inclusion of Passenger shipping in the PDA.
Thank you for sending me the responses that
you have received from P&O Ferries and Stena Line. I completely
endorse their views. The characteristics of passenger shipping
are very different from shore establishments. We feel that the
current guidelines we operate are perfectly adequate and we receive
very little in the way of complaints. There is no reason for the
exemption to be withdrawn.
