The question
To ask the Scottish Executive whether the terms of the National Parks (Scotland) Bill can accommodate the establishment of a marine national park off the east coast of Scotland but outwith the boundary set by the Scottish Adjacent Waters Boundaries Order 1999.
The answer
The terms of the National Parks (Scotland) Bill do not refer to any sea boundary. The boundaries of any individual marine national park would be considered on its merits and defined on a case-by-case basis.
