Answer
The costs to rectify the issue with the vehicle ramp on the MV Strangford 2 are estimated at approximately £12,000. It is expected that the alteration to the ramp will be carried out over the next four to five days, after which the Maritime and Coastguard Agency will be asked to provide a Passenger Certificate.
