Part of 2. Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd – in the Senedd at 2:20 pm on 13 October 2021.
Protection of the marine environment is something that I've been championing for many, many years, and one particular issue that I've raised in the Chamber on a number of occasions is the reintroduction of scallop dredging in a small area of Cardigan bay, a special area of conservation, and the impact on marine life in that area. Minister, it's been several years now since this activity was restarted, and I'm keen to know what assessment has been carried out with regard to the environmental impact of scallop dredging on this site since it was reintroduced in 2016.
