7. Conclusion

Scottish Ministers have had regard to best available evidence and conclude that, provided that appropriate management measures for fishing activities identified above are implemented any remaining fishing activities within the Anton Dohrn Seamount SAC are compatible with site conservation objectives and have no adverse impact on site integrity of the SAC.
