DEVONPORT LOCAL LIAISON COMMITTEE

The Local Liaison Committee was formed to provide a forum for members to gather information about general operations undertaken on the Babcock Marine and Naval Base site and discuss health, safety and environmental issues which may impact on public safety. The Committee meets twice yearly, chaired alternately by the Ministry of Defence and Babcock Marine.

The next Local Liaison Committee meeting is 10:00 on 10 December 2008 at Welcome Hall, Devonport.

It will give Committee members the opportunity to hear about current Dockyard activities from senior Babcock Marine staff and from MoD officials.

Members of the public are welcome to attend and individuals can, in advance of the meeting, ask their representatives on the Committee to put particular questions to the Babcock Marine and MoD personnel.
