It will make decisions on the majority of marine developments and, where it is not the decision making body, it will be a key advisor on marine issues, bringing consistency to the decision making process.” Huw Irranca-Davies

It will not: propose Marine Conservation Zones, as that is a role for Natural England and the Joint Nature Conservation Committee, but will input to the process; make decisions on oil and gas licensing, although marine plans will guide those decisions; licence energy installations greater than 100MW or major ports, where the IPC is the regulator. Although here too, the IPC’s decisions will refer to marine plans made by the MMO; deal with navigational safety of shipping or ship-to-ship transfers, which remain with the Maritime and Coastguard Agency; deal with, which protection of maritime heritage except insofar as that is taken into account in marine plans or affects decisions made by the MMO.

Click to edit Master title style Click to edit Master subtitle style 9/18/ Marine Management Organisation If you care about our seas… Enforcement - the MMO is the government’s principal marine enforcement body for English territorial waters and offshore marine areas. It will need to be a respected and proportionate enforcer, fully conversant with current best practice. Data and knowledge management – MMO will need to acquire and use data effectively to support its functions. Engagement – the MMO will need to be capable of engaging Government, industry, other delivery bodies, NGOs, pressure groups and individuals in the work that it does. Statistics - the MMO will need the statistical expertise to assess data related to its fisheries work and also ensure that its analysis of data for other areas similarly follows sound statistical practices. Science – the MMO will need to build the MFA’s reputation to develop an authoritative voice concerning the marine the environment. This will need to be founded on its expertise and effective use of evidence and analysis. Being recognized and being heard – like other important delivery bodies MMO will need to be a recognised brand, and it will need to manage its public voice so that it is respected and trusted for the expertise it offers. Some things that the MMO will need to be ‘good at’ Economics and social sciences - as a body charged with assessing all 3 pillars of sustainability, the MMO will need the right expertise to inform its work and the advice it gives to government.
