The Marine Works (Environmental Impact Assessment) and Marine Strategy (Amendment) Regulations 2018
These Regulations amend the Marine Works (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations 2007 (S.I. 2007/1518) (“the EIA Regulations”) and the Marine Strategy Regulations 2010 (S.I. 2010/1627) (“the Marine Strategy Regulations”). The amendments are consequential on the transfer to the Welsh Ministers by sections 29, 46 and 47 (respectively) of the Wales Act 2017 (c. 4) of certain functions relating to harbours that are wholly in Wales, and functions relating to marine licensing and marine conservation in the Welsh offshore area under the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 (c. 23).
