Future of the Maritime Area Regulatory Authority: Discussion

On the enforcement point, local authorities have had huge challenges in respect of planning enforcement over the years. My experience, when I was a local authority member, was that it was probably more challenging than any other area, and I continue to see that. What can be done to ensure there will not be repeated significant challenges with planning enforcement? Is that something the witnesses are looking at and does it need additional consideration? Obviously, every area the authority has responsibility for brings challenges, but is this an area that requires extra attention?
