What really worries me is every time there has been a change of legislation or alteration of environmental legislation shooting/wildfowling has come off worse. Perhaps if BASC is proactive we can put in place that traditional coastal wildfowling and its associated conservation work. Does not constitute a plan or a project. Therefore does not need to be entered into the consenting process. In the same way that yachting is not considered a plan or project.
