I've said it before and I'll say it again, MCZ's are OBLIGED to take into account 'social impact'. If the figures for boats impacted by any legislation in Studland are at or above 10,000 then I can't imagine any other site having a greater social impact.
I strongly believe BORG, RYA et al should be pushing this line VERY hard. There is a strong possibility of being compromised into insignificance.
We are. It is our No1 line of attack with Finding Sanctuary and MMO. However, Government conservation advisors present a strong lobby, and my previous post, and the discussions we are holding, are intended to give us more 'ammunition' to support our primary point. Studland is a KEY social and receational facility, and should be regarded as such with all the economic implications of lost business for the marine leisure support businesses in the area.
