...Ben Stafford, Chairman of Wildlife and Countryside Link's marine campaign, said: "We are pleased to see the inclusion of this draft bill pledge in the overnment's programme, and we will be campaigning to ensure that the bill makes better protection of marine wildlife a priority... A short-snouted seahorse, photographed in UK waters. © Paul Naylor / www.marinephoto.org / WWF-UK 'What is vitally important now is that the Government presses ahead quickly with this draft bill, so that a full bill can be introduced at the earliest opportunity. Britain's rich marine wildlife has been damaged through years of neglect, over-exploitation and inappropriate development. There is now an opportunity to make real change, and Ministers must seize it." The Wildlife and Countryside Link is a coalition of the UK's major environmental non-governmental organisations:its marine campaign is led by: the Marine Conservation Society; the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds; the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society; The Wildlife Trusts; and WWF-UK, and is supported by other Link members."
