Newlyn Fishermen's Forum meeting 12th October at 10am.


A reminder to all fishermen who are members of the Newlyn Fishermen's Forum that there is a meeting on Friday this week to discuss the current development plans for the harbour car park, the Strand, Sandy Cove and more - a chance to meet with others to discuss the issues that might affect day to day operations in the port over the next few years.

Tuesday 12 April 2016

Have your say - it's the MMO's consultation for the next phase of marine planning.

We would like your views and feedback on the draft Statement of Public Participation and the draft Sustainability Appraisal scoping report for the next phase of marine plans – the north east, north west, south east and south west marine areas.

The Statement of Public Participation sets out whom, when and how we will engage with stakeholders during the marine planning process. Stakeholder involvement in developing the marine plans is essential, with specialist and local knowledge being central to ensuring the marine plans are robust and meaningful.

The Sustainability Appraisal provides an independent assessment of the marine plans at each stage in their development, ensuring that economic, social and environmental sustainability is at the core of the marine plans. The scoping report is the first stage of the Sustainability Appraisal, setting out what issues the appraisal will consider.

Both consultations ask a short number of questions on the documents and are now open for comment.
