Parliamentary Secretary for Planning Michael Farrugia is in agreement with the proposal made by Environment Commissioner David Pace to draw up a marine development plan to regulate the development of the coast and surrounding seas as part of the Strategic Plan for the Environment and Development being undertaken by the government.

Dr Farrugia said the plan, drafted back in December, included sufficient detail as to what should take place and where, adding that specific and area-related matters can be dealt with once the plan is in place.
