P-04-406 : Against Proposed MCZ zones in North Wales

Petition wording:

We Call upon the Welsh Assembly Government NOT to include any of the six proposed sites within North Wales to become Marine Conservation Zones (MCZ).  We say no to Llanbedrog/Pwllheli, Aberdaron/Bardsey Island, Porthdinllaen/Tudweiliog, Aberech/Llanstyndwy, Puffin Island/Beaumaris and North East Menai Strait.

This proposal would have a detrimental effect not only on our fishing industry but also on our tourism and economy.  We rely on our coasts for our livings and enjoyment. We strongly oppose all six potential sites.
