Ms Caroline Bocquel:
Indeed it has and we are taking our first look at it in detail next week. Once we do that, we will invite the inshore in to discuss that with us so we can work with them to determine going forward what needs to be done. We have some thoughts as to how we can help develop that sector. We see some of the challenges that exist in terms of spatial pressures and opportunities for the sector and we really want to sit down and have those discussions with them but very much on the foundations of good solid data that tells us exactly what the sector is like, the logistics and exactly how the project is moving around and goes into some of the nuances, which are extremely important when we are dealing with the coastal communities.
