Abstract | In 2012 the Government introduced a Revised Approach to the management of commercially licensed fisheries in EMSs to comply with obligations under the EU Habitats and Birds Directives. This ensured all existing and potential commercial fishing activities are subject to an assessment of their impact on the features of EMSs and are appropriately managed to achieve the conservation objectives of the site. |
