The answer

Answered by Richard Lochhead on 16 Nov 2011 · 33 days after it was lodged, on time

The Clyde Inshore Fisheries Group is nearing completion of its draft fisheries management plan and will soon submit it to Ministers for approval. The Scottish Government will consider the priorities and management measures proposed in the plan with a view to implementing them as appropriate in due course.
We will shortly be undertaking stakeholder engagement on the outputs from the Clyde Project, which was initiated last autumn in the first instance to review the evidence on the state of the Clyde.
