Conservation Management Advice for Marine Protected Areas
NatureScot’s SiteLink contains Conservation and Management Advice (CMA) for each MPA and SPA Fishing Activity Further Advice and Evidence for SPAs only. The CMAs provide NatureScot’s formal advice for MPAs for a full range of activities. The SPA Fishing Activity Further Advice and Evidence documents only relate to SPAs and summarise dive depth analysis and fishing activity advice. These site-specific documents are available on the relevant MPA page, on the right under ‘Documents & Links’.
Links to the pages for all MPAs relevant to the upcoming consultation on management measures for fishing activity are listed below.
