The Body said it was working with A Number of organisations and would provide a further update " in due course".

On Sunday afternoon, the Environment Agency (EA) said it had received reports of a " large amount of oil" in Poole Harbour .

In a statement the EA said: " We Are supporting the Port Authority and other partners in responding to this incident. "

Dorset Police said it was informed by PHC at 13:43 BST on Sunday of an oil leak in Poole Harbour .
