Marine Reserves

EDM number 337 in 2008-09, proposed by Bill Wiggin on 17/12/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Fisheries and Marine environment.

That this House notes the recommendation made by the Royal Commission on Environmental Pollution in their 25th Report in 2004 that a widespread network of highly protected marine reserves throughout all UK seas is an important marine management tool which is required in order to rebuild UK commercial fish stocks and to halt the serious damage being caused to marine ecosystems; and calls upon the Government to develop selection criteria under the Marine Bill for establishing a network of protected marine areas based around science-based decision making.

This motion has been signed by a total of 238 MPs, 5 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
