It was supported by the Cornwall sea fisheries committee. The Isles of Scilly sea fisheries committee, which regulates fisheries in its area, applied for the bylaw. The Department of Environment (Defra), which designates the SACs, said that it will be "fully contesting the claim". The leader of a newly formed group of scallop fishermen, Chris Vinnecombe, is seeking a judicial review of a bylaw, introduced in September, which restricts the number of dredgers to two per boat, compared with the six that his organisation maintains is necessary to make money.Įnglish Nature's maritime officer Roger Covey, who advised the government of the need for protection, said: "Dredging is destroying seabed communities, including populations of the rare sea fan and ross coral." It prevents large-scale dredging of scallop beds, and imposes such stringent conditions on the practice that fishermen from Cornwall and Devon say it is not economically worth the trip for them to fish in the Scillies. The SAC, one of only 12 in Britain, covers a four mile area around the islands. The battleground is the Isles of Scilly, and the case is of European importance because it is the first legal challenge to an EU marine special area of conservation (SAC).
