Last chance to have your say about the Island's marine plan

The extensive report contained baseline information on the Manx marine environment, and is seen as a key step towards establishing the 'Isle of Man Marine Plan'.

The document will provide a framework for assessment of potential offshore development in the Manx territorial waters, highlighting the Chief Minister's goal of delivering economic growth and diversification.

The MMEA has also endeavoured to flag up areas where there are gaps in understanding, resources and local skills.

For your last chance to view the document and submit your response head over to gov.im/consultations.

All submissions must have been returned by 5pm this evening.
