Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

What about the Russians, indeed? Clearly, there is a general issue around the enforcement of provisions outside our territorial waters. It depends on the nature of the activity that takes place. We wish to have the tools that will enable us to deal with those matters. My understanding is that the position of Russian trawlers—if that is the point—would be no different in relation to marine conservation zones from their position in relation to fishing at the moment. That is not changed by the Bill.
