Part of 1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Rural Affairs – in the Senedd at 1:55 pm on 20 September 2017.
I’m unable to comment on a specific determination process that was carried out some years ago, but I can assure you that all marine licence applications are considered in line with legal requirements, which are set out in Part 4 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 and the Marine Works (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2007. The regulations provide procedures to determine the need for an EIA on the project, and I understand a valid marine licence is in place, and there are conditions that need to be complied with by the licence holder before any disposal can take place.
