Abstract

The objective of the present study is to grasp the interaction between the UK Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 and recently passed Scottish Marine Bill and how they may together form a solid legal framework capable of enhancing the sustainability of the UK’s adjacent seas and guaranteeing the long-waited protection of the UK’s marine environment. Together with that, an attempt will be made to describe, even though basically, some of the main flaws of the old regime and how the recently proposed conservation system dealt with them.
