Port & Harbour Related Activities
The firm acts for many clients with activities linked to the Port and Harbour of Newport. This experience, and the knowledge gained from the assignments, have made us a good choice for businesses of this type.
We act as Clerk to the Newport Harbour Commissioners, a body established by its own act of Parliament in 1836. NHC ensure safe navigation in the Port of Newport, and we are called upon to advise the Board in a variety of different situations.
We also act as accountants to Ship’s agents and members of the Institute of Chartered Shipbrokers.
The port industry is a world-apart, and we are very pleased to assist members of that industry with accounting, auditing and tax services, together with all the other types of work explained elsewhere on this website.
WH have acted as Clerk to the Commissioners for many years. They have given a constantly high-quality service and always aim to assist the Board to run its affairs in an efficient, effective and economic manner. Their service has ensured that the Commissioners comply with their statutory responsibilities. They have assisted the Commissioners to support the stakeholders and users of the Port – this being an extremely important contributor to the economic wellbeing of the City.
