Preparations to refloat the vessel are continuing, although with some necessary permissions yet to be granted a final date for refloat has not yet been released.

The fate of the ship will be discussed at further meetings this week with the Secretary of State's Representative, Robin Middleton.

Dive teams have been checking patches, and newly identified cracks in Number 5 Hold are being sealed. Sealing work is also in operation in the steering gear room.

Skimming is continuing as required in the engine room, passageway and Holds.

There have been no new reports of oil at sea or on shore. The dredger MANNIN is due to arrive on the 28th June from Padstow, which will recover submerged items from the starboard side and take them to Portland Port.

Divers over the weekend located and recovered some car parts at Kimmeridge.

Beach patrols are continuing.
