Some of you will already be aware of the recent legislation regarding daily catch limits for certain species of shellfish from unlicensed boats.

The board are of the opinion that, while, as a training organisation, we cannot involve
ourselves in this debate we wish to bring this legislation to your attention.
There are serious implications for dive boats and their owners for breaching this new regulation.
ScotSAC advice therefore is that should you wish to have your say about this, then your local Member of the Scottish Parliament should be your first port of call.
