Survey - Will the poroposed MCZs impact on your fishing?

Get your views and thoughts recorded - you chance to influence the impact that the proposed MCZ programme will have on the fishing industry off the coast of Cornwall.

The purpose of the study is to gain opinions from three selected user groups of the Cornish Waters to ascertain whether the proposed Marine Conservation Zones will impact on the various users and to what extent. It also aims to understand the level of conservation needed in the areas. Honest opinions are needed as it is not a government study.

No names are required.

The three chosen stakeholders are: inshore and off shore fishermen, divers and anglers have returned a mix of results.

Any additional comments that the participants have are greatly appreciated and can be put at the end of the questionnaire. If people want to fill them out and send them electronically back I have attached a word version so it can be electronically sent back, I also attach a PDF later today, please send any electronic copies to my hotmail address above.
