Strategic Framework for Scottish Aquaculture - UK - The latest update to the Strategic Framework for Scottish Aquaculture was published today, setting out key achievements which have already been met to help create a sustainable, diverse and competitive industry.
Deputy Environment Minister Rhona Brankin said:
"We want to build a sustainable, diverse and competitive aquaculture industry here in Scotland and the information published today proves we are making good progress on a range of fronts towards achieving that goal.
"They include training opportunities for those involved in the industry and introducing measures to reduce disease incidents.
"Close partnership working to develop local solutions has been key to delivering these targets and I would expect that joint approach to continue."
The Aquaculture and Fisheries Bill has now gone before the Scottish Parliament which will help realise the vision of the Strategic Framework.
