Report on Marine Protected Areas
Welsh Government Report to the National Assembly for Wales on Marine Protected Areas in Wales February 2014 © Crown Copyright 2014 Digital ISBN 978 1 4734 0974 3 WG20649 CONTENTS Introduction 2 Background 4 National, European and International commitments 5 Current Marine Protected Areas in Wales 7 Assessment of existing Marine Protected Areas 13 MPA management 16 Annex 17 INTRODUCTION 1. This document provides the Welsh Government’s Report to the National Assembly for Wales on the Marine Protected Areas network, in response to recommendation 10 of the Environment and Sustainability Committee’s Marine Inquiry. Recommendation 10: By the 31 December 2013, the Welsh Government should voluntarily lay before the Assembly a report that meets the requirement of section 124 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009. This report should include an appraisal of the environmental status, governance and enforcement of existing marine protected areas. 2. Section 124 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 (the Marine Act) requires the Welsh Ministers to lay a report before the National Assembly for Wales on the extent to which it has achieved the objectives in the Marine Act to use conservation sites to contribute to a UK network of marine protected areas. The report must cover further steps needed to meet the network objectives, as well as specific details on any Marine Conservation Zones that have been designated. 3. The network objectives as detailed in section 123 of the Marine Act are that European marine sites (Special Areas of Conservation, Special Protection Areas), Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Ramsar sites form a network which contributes to the conservation or improvement of the marine environment in the UK marine area; where the features which are protected by the sites comprised in the network represent the range of features present in the UK marine area; and recognises the conservation of a feature may require the designation of more than one site. -

Programme 3 the Norman Conquest of Pembrokeshire
PROGRAMME 3 THE NORMAN CONQUEST OF PEMBROKESHIRE Introduction. We’re walking through Pembrokeshire and Britain’s only coastal national park to discover how a group of French-speaking warriors turned this corner of Wales into a place still known as ‘Little England beyond Wales’. Home to miles of rugged coast line, beautiful beaches and incredible wildlife, it’s a landscape and culture heavily shaped by the Normans. Unlike the knockout victory of Hastings, this conquest was a long, fiercely fought struggle. Over time the Normans turned a Welsh speaking Kingdom into an English speaking shire dominated by castles, churches and the amazing cathedral in the city of St Davids. .Walking Through History Day 1 . From St Davids, we’ll make our way along the coastal cliffs, learning about the Norman’s first meetings with the native Welsh. We’ll start by walking in the footsteps of England’s greatest warrior king – William the Conqueror. St Davids to Newgale via Pembrokeshire Coastal Path Distance: 10 miles Day 2 . Heading inland, we’re walking the rough frontier the Norman’s fought to create with the rest of Wales. We’ll trace this boundary – or Landsker Line – that formed as Normans and Flemings flooded in, past early defences at Hayscastle and Wolfcastle. Climbing Great Treffgarne Mountain gives the perfect look out over the landscape facing the invaders. Finally we head south-west, to discover how the native Welsh fought back as I reach Wiston. Newgale to Wiston via Hayscastle, Wolfcastle and Great Treffgarne Mountain Distance: 20 miles Day 3 . The River Cleddau is our guide on Day 3, as we find out how a stunning welsh princess seduced Normans, Welsh and English alike. -

It also shows how we have applied the 5 ways of working under the Well-being of Future Generations Act in our work and acts as our annual equality report (see Objective 1, 3, 4, 5 and 6.) We would like to thank staff, Members, volunteers, partners and communities within and beyond the Park for helping us deliver activities highlighted in this document. During this period the Well-being Plan for Pembrokeshire was being drafted and this Plan will influence future work of the Authority. Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Pembrokeshire Coast National Park was designated in 1952 under the National Park and Access to the Countryside Act 1949. The National Park covers an area of 612km2, with approximately 23,000 people living in some 50 community council areas. Most of the National Park is in private ownership with the Authority owning only about 1%.

The Authority consists of 18 Members, 12 nominated by Pembrokeshire County Council and six appointed by the Welsh Government. Park Purposes and the National Park Management Plan The Environment Act 1995 specifies that the Purposes of a National Park Authority are To conserve and enhance the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage of the park area To promote opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities of the area by the public. -

Wales & the Cotswolds
WALES & THE COTSWOLDS JULY 3 – JULY 22, 2015 | £3,199* per person Our tour includes one of the most in-depth explorations of Wales and the Welsh borderlands available: some the best of the Cotswolds; a visit to the famous Ironbridge Museum, otherwise known as the Valley of the Industrial Revolution; and finishing at Highclere Castle, better known as Downton Abbey. Our routing is always via the most picturesque and varied countryside, concentrating on Britain’s heritage wherever possible — its ruins, castles, palaces, abbeys and stately homes containing many interesting and varied collections, many of which have featured in movies and familiar TV series. The great thing about the majority of these wonderful attractions in the countryside is that they are nearly all also museums in themselves. We visit some of the loveliest Cotswold villages, with their gorgeous thatched cottages and honey-coloured stone. In addition to history, our emphasis throughout is spectacular scenery, amazingly different architecture due to both the construction periods and the use of local building materials (mostly due to the astonishingly diverse geology of Britain), and glorious gardens, so that the entire trip is a photographer’s dream. We include up to 35 different attractions with no ‘optional extras’. We stay in lovely hotels with great food, sometimes in very small places, where the emphasis is more on local charm than on North American-style modernization! INCLUDED IN THE PRICE Airport transfer for those arriving with the majority of the group • Accommodation and transportation • Breakfasts and dinners as specified • Admission to all attractions as per the detailed itinerary • Escort throughout The tour is escorted by Maggie Rodgers who has taught Travel courses for Continuing Education in Vancouver, Surrey and White Rock, British Columbia, for several years. -
