Defra consultation.
Defra is inviting all stakeholders to provide their views on the work of Cornwall IFCA to create a report covering 1st September 2018 to 31st August 2022.
The Marine and Coastal Access Act (2009) requires the Secretary of State to lay a report before Parliament on the ‘conduct and operation’ of the IFCAs as soon as reasonably practical after the end of every four-year period. The next report is now due and will cover from
1st September 2018 to 31st August 2022.
Defra is inviting all stakeholders to respond to a call for evidence to help them understand your perspective on the work of Cornwall IFCA in meeting its duties. There are two ways to share your view.
A targeted Qualtrics survey designed for individuals that are most knowledgeable about the IFCAs including: recreational anglers, inshore fishers, IFCA General Members, local government Councillors, Arm’s Length Body employees, academics, and members of Non-Governmental Organisations. The survey is anonymous and can be accessed using the following link:
Qualtrics Survey | Qualtrics Experience Management
An online Citizen Space survey for members of the public and representatives of organisations. This is available via the following link:
Report to Parliament about Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authorities’ (IFCAs) conduct and operations 2018-2022 – Defra – Citizen Space
Both methods are now open and will close on 22 April 2024.
