EA BRIEFING NOTE ON TACKLING ILLEGAL ACTIVITY
Following the Campaign’s appeal to WAG, the EA were instructed to carry out a review of illegal activities in Wales (see progress page). As a result of the review, the first “change in attitude” publications have started to emerge. The EA have recently released this briefing note, whilst funding still remains an issue, we feel this is a very positive step in the right direction.

THE ENVIRONMENT AGENCY REVIEW OF THEIR ENFORCEMENT ACTIVITIES IN WALES: 2008
This is the document the Agency produced in response to the Welsh Assembly Governments request. In it you will read exactly what the Agency feel they are doing and how they are dealing with fisheries enforcement in Wales. I find the document a sad read as I think the Agency missed a great opportunity. Please read it and come to your own opinion and remember we will be pleased to hear your comments. Our comments on the review are included under the Campaign Responses tab.
