I refer to the letter How Safe Is The Gozo Ferry? (August 10)

Searches are conducted at random on shore and on board vessels by the duty officers and the company operates a ferry service dedicated to the carriage of dangerous goods, materials and substances which are listed in the International Maritime Dangerous Goods (IMDG) Code. Fireworks are completely banned from Gozo Channel vessels and if transported by other means of transport to Gozo this is not a matter with which the company can concern itself, other than by seeking to enforce the rules through inspection as mentioned above.
