Marine and Coastal Access Bill [Lords]

The hon. Gentleman makes a very strong argument, which I support, as I did in Committee. "Contribution to" raises various questions: is it a leading contribution; is it a significant contribution; and where are the other contributions going to come from? It raises also the question of whether the simple offer of a contribution will be effective at all. Indeed, the Government have not properly addressed whether the so-called contribution, which they suggest the MMO will make, will be significant at all.
