I was asked literally by tens and tens of people to meet to discuss this and, as you are aware, my diary just wouldn’t allow it. I’d be very happy to meet with you if you wanted to come along and bring some of the concerns forward, because it just was not possible to meet with everybody. However, we have taken each one of the responses into consideration. It is a very complex issue, and I’m very keen to have a marine plan. I’ve already met this week with officials, and you will be aware that it’s currently being drafted. The result of the European referendum has caused a bit of a hiatus in bringing forward the marine plan, but I do hope to consult on the draft plan probably in the middle of next year.
