No doubt some of the members of this forum have responded elsewhere, but I urge those that haven't to drop your MSP a line and ask their opinion of Mr Finnies lack of interest in sea angling and why he considers it has no part to play in developing the Executive’s Strategic Framework for Inshore Fisheries.
Please reply to this post with the name of the MSP you contact.

Please reply to this post with the name of the MSP you contact. There's a bit on this in todays P & J - 9 column inches in the farming and fishing section. This gives another opportunity for someone on this forum who hasn't already mailed their MSP - now you've just seen it in the P & J and you are apalled at what you've just read, Mr Finnie should be .......... |

Just recieved a reply from David Turnbull (on behalf of ross Finnie and the Scottish Executive). They are aware of the benefits that Salmon and Trout angling have brought to Scotland but have been unable to detetermine the benefits from Sea Angling. Dont hold your breath waiting on help from this lot!

Dont hold your breath waiting on help from this lot! Any chance you could scan his letter in and send a copy to me so we can add it to the pile as ammunition for pressing the Scottish Exec into actually doing something and giving sea angling the recognition it deserves. |

Update on the lobbying effort across all forums Emails / Letters to MSPs line-- was 54 line-- now 68 Letters direct to Finnie line-- was 08 line-- now 15 MSP letters to Finnie line-- was 10 line-- now 18 Plus articles in Press and Journal, Western Daily Press and Sea Angler. Plus terrific supporting letters from Penn. Plus questions tabled at Holyrood. All this has resulted in the SFSA and SACN being invited to meet with The Head of Inshore Fisheries and the Head of Tourism to discuss our aims. This is no doubt as a result of all the mails, letters etc that you and your MSPs have generated line thanks to all that have contributed. OK, probably not earth shattering, but it is a step forward and we'll keep plugging away raising the issues and trying to get some results. For those that still haven't had a go, you're not too late, get your voice heard.!! You can find your MSPs email / snailmail details at www.scottish.parliament.uk/msp/Support contributions from outside Scotland line-- was 09 line-- now 10 For those outwith Scotland line if you fish up here, help us try and get a direct voice to help preserve the great fishing you come for, plenty of good ideas in the thread for content, contact Mr Finnie direct Ross.Finnie.msp@scottish.parliament.uk Please update this thread with any contact details |
