Marine and Coastal Access Bill [Lords]

I will happily write to the hon. Gentleman in response to his point. The Bill also tightens up the procedures for dealing with harm caused by licensing offences and the rules governing putting things right when damage has been caused. We have placed a clear duty on the marine licensing authority to notify local authorities of applications they receive for activities in their areas, and that will be welcomed. The Bill also ensures that the order-making power covering exemptions for activities that will not need a marine licence will be subject to the same principles that licensing authorities must have regard to when determining licensing applications. Part 5 and schedules 11, 12 and 13 deal with nature conservation—
