TRANSPORT Made recommendations on marking shipping lanes Produced an international highway code for all road users

SOCIAL PROBLEMS Blacklisted 4 companies involved in illegal drug trade. Freed slaves from British owed Sierra Leone Kept careful records & provided info on drug trafficking, prostitution and slavery.
