Clause 44
Marine and Coastal Access Bill [Lords]
10:30 am
The purpose of this amendment is to ensure that the MMO has a duty to ‘further’ sustainable development. This gives the MMO a sufficiently robust objective to be responsible for ‘furthering’ and not just ‘making a contribution to the achievement of’ sustainable development.
Amendment 2, in clause 2, page 2, line 24, leave out ‘contribution to the achievement of’ and insert ‘furthering of’.
