To follow on from Deputy Boyd Barrett, costs should not be a barrier to groups looking for protections for the marine environment and the marine area. At the end of the day, for people who have genuine concerns about the environment, especially the marine, costs are restricting their ability to look for justice, to look for what is right and to look for protection. Some groups could have genuine concerns. We are not talking about serial objectors or people like that; we are talking about people who have genuine concerns about the marine environment having the ability to take a judicial review without being blocked, which is the worry when dealing with big corporations and big money. Local groups, small groups or environmental groups cannot be denied access to justice.
