Business and Regulatory Impact Assessment (BRIA) which looks at the social and economic impacts of the designation of the Red Rocks and Longay Marine Protected Area (MPA).

Many of the businesses affected may include some small and micro-sized firms. For the commercial fisheries sector the average number of fishers per Scottish vessel in 2020 was 2.3. Additional costs imposed by the introduction of fisheries management measures at the Red Rocks and Longay MPA have the potential to fall on small businesses.
