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:
Housing minister 'shocked' there are no first-time buyer properties currently available
Rob Callister says he was 'shocked' by the figure
Manx businesses at 'great competitive disadvantage' says MHK
Broad told Treasury keeping cost of crossing Irish Sea 'under review'
Road to close again from Monday
Cattle grid replacement requires full closure for several days
Airport passengers urged to arrive two hours before departure
High passenger numbers expected at Ronaldsway later
