UK Gov't will consult IOM with marine plans

The UK government says it'll consult the Isle of Man as it develops the sea around Manx waters.

The Marine Management Organisation and Department for Environment, Food & Rural Affairs has published the North west Marine Plan for England.

In it, Westminster sets out what it wants to achieve in the offshore area just beyond the Island's 12-mile limit.

The document says any proposals which could affect the Island would be discussed with the Manx government, and its views would be considered.
