Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Welcome, once again, Minister, here with us today in our transport committee.
Minister, we all understand, of course, the gravity of the situation in Ukraine and the dire consequences for the people living there. Certainly we understand the necessity of taking action, as we have, in the transport sector, and of course the potential impact of the supply chain on the economy. When I look at the shipping industry and the importance to our economy and to coastlines in the north and east and west, there are many ports that rely on shipping of course, and obviously everyone would be impacted by the ban.
How do we plan to enforce this ban, and will the Coast Guard be deployed in the event of an incursion?
