DEFA chief wants to make industry sustainable long-term
The Department of Environment, Food and Agriculture is seeking public opinion on how to make the king scallop fishery sustainable long-term.
Concerns have been raised following signs its stock is on the decline.
Four-and-a-half thousand tonnes were landed in the Island last year - worth an estimated £4 million to the Manx economy.
DEFA Minister Richard Ronan is keen to take action before the situation worsens:
Lord Street scheme WILL still go ahead
Co-developer plans to resubmit planning application
Increase in anti-social behaviour in Onchan
Residents becoming 'repeat victims' of 'small group of youths'
Work on Douglas harbour mud build-up to continue into summer
