The MOD is planning to use PFI to privatise some areas of Search & Rescue, apparently because our current Sea Kings are getting a bit old. Hmm... isn't this the same MOD that's blown 4 Billion on two new Giant Aircraft Carriers, but failed to buy the new helicopters required for current campaigns, and er.. search and rescue.
Cornwall County Council is totally against the idea - not surprising given that Falmouth is the vanguard for the atlantic when it comes to shipping problems.
