This Order is an “urgent continuation order” which provides that the Red Rocks and Longay Marine Conservation (No. 2) Order 2021 (“the 2021 Order”), an “urgent marine conservation order”, remains in force until the end of 10 March 2023. The 2021 Order would otherwise remain in force until the end of 16 March 2022.
The Red Rocks and Longay MPA was designated as a nature conservation marine protected area by, and described in article 3 of, the Red Rocks and Longay Nature Conservation Marine Protected Area (No. 2) Order 2021 (“the MPA Order”). The MPA Order is available at https://www.gov.scot/policies/marine-environment/marine-protected-areas/. The conservation objectives are stated in article 5 of the MPA Order. The MPA Order was made by the Scottish Ministers in exercise of the powers conferred by sections 67(1)(a), 68, 69(1), 74 and 79(1) of the Marine (Scotland) Act 2010. By virtue of section 165(3) of that Act that Order is not a Scottish statutory instrument.
Notice of the Scottish Ministers’ proposal to make the permanent order is available at https://consult.gov.scot/marine-conservation/red-rocks-longay-marine-protected-area.
