A Scottish Marine Bill was a welcome early promise by the SNP, yet there is no sign of it in next year’s legislative programme. A Bill is needed to ensure future generations are able to enjoy and make a sustainable living from Scotland’s world-class seas. Cross-party support for a Scottish Marine Bill would ensure such an urgently-needed Bill would sail through parliament. This is a win-win opportunity waiting to be grasped.
