Draft Fisheries Assessment – Firth of Forth Banks Complex NCMPA: Fisheries management measures within Scottish Offshore Marine Protected Areas (MPAs)
These assessments look at the fishing activity occurring within each offshore MPA and SAC and assess the potential impacts of this activity on the protected features within each site. This assessment is for Firth of Forth Banks Complex NCMPA.
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 would not hinder the conservation objectives of this Nature Conservation Marine Protected Area.
