Clause 117
Marine and Coastal Access Bill [Lords]
4:00 pm

I think that everybody here today supports this element of the Bill, but would like to get it right.

Has he any estimate of the amount of sea bed that has attached to it sufficient scientific evidence and knowledge to make these designations?
