Statutory Consultation

Indicative wording for the Regulating Order and management plan was provided to DEFRA on 11 April 2023 with an update provided to them following the 14 July 2023 IFCA meeting. Officers will continue to work with DEFRA on the new Regulating Order which now comes under DEFRA's remit as a Regulating Order is a Statutory Instrument that can only be made by Parliament.

We will continue to update this site as and when we receive information from DEFRA
