Marine and Coastal Access Bill [HL]

I am grateful for that explanation. We should not discuss this much further, but I should be clear that I am talking not about co-ordination but about policies carried out within a planning area, regardless of whether people outside it want to co-ordinate and co-operate. It does not matter. They might refuse to talk and to co-ordinate, but the policies carried out within the area should still have regard to the effect on sustainable development outside the boundaries of the area because, as the Minister said, it is about sustainable development. If that is the case, why not put that in the Bill? Finally, I think that the Minister was talking about Clause 49(1)(a), about the plan. Clause 49(1)(b) is about the policies. The plan has to be constrained within the boundary; the submission here is that the policies must have regard to the effect that they are having beyond the boundary. Having said that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 88B withdrawn. Amendments 89 to 89ZA not moved.
