Does it still exist?

I am not sure the Maritime and Coastal Agency still exists; the coalition UK government wanted to get rid of many quangos and perhaps this is one of them they actually have.he

My reason for thinking it may have disappeared is that the Shipping Forecast was for the last few years "Issued by the Met Office on behalf of the Maritime and Coastal Agency" but this morning I just noticed that it is now just "Issued by the Met Office". I am not saying at this is the first day it did, just the first time I noticed, since I am usually kinda taking it as an introduction ready to listen to the forecast proper.
