Marine planning zones set out the spatial limits for particular local authorities responsibilities for planning controls of marine fish and shellfish farms in Scottish waters. Scottish Government are proposing that marine planning zones are extended out to 12 nautical miles to resolve a gap in aquaculture planning regulations. These proposals go through a public consultation which opened on 18th September 2024 and closes on 11th December 2024.
