Letter from Law Society of Scotland Follow up to Ecocide Scotland Bill evidence session on 23 Septem
Whilst we are not able to provide Scotland-specific examples during the time frame outlined by Mr Matheson, there are two instances – in England and the Republic of Ireland, referenced below - that we can cite as examples of situations which might have been prosecuted as alleged ecocide had the necessary legal framework existed: i. 2003 Derrybrien landslide In October 2003, a landslide caused by the construction of a windfarm dislodged a significant quantity of peat after a period of dry weather which, after stopping and starting, entered the Derrywee River, and eventually Lough Cutra (20kms 1 away) . 1 https://www.agriland.ie/farming-news/derrybrien-wind-farm-how-it-all-went-wrong/ T he landslide disrupted drinking water to the local town, and an assessment on the impact of the lake’s wildlife showed that more than 50% of the fish...

Fairer Funding Allocation for Scotland's Fishing and Coastal Communities: The Parliament debated S6M-19427 in the name of Alasdair Allan— That the Parliament considers the UK Government’s allocation of the £360 million UK-EU Fishing and Coastal Growth Fund, which is based on population rather than fishing industry size, to be wholly unfair and deeply damaging to the Scottish fishing industry; understands that Scottish vessels consistently land more than half of the UK’s total catch, 63% of total catch value, and over 60% of seafood exports; believes that prior to Brexit, allocations of funds under the European Maritime and Fisheries Fund were 36% for England, 46% for Scotland, 10% for Northern Ireland and 8% for Wales, in comparison to the allocation of under 8% for Scotland via Barnett consequentials used as the mechanism for allocating the Fishing and Coastal Growth Fund; recognises what it sees as the vital importance of the fishing industry both economically and culturally to Scotland’s coastal communities, including in the Western Isles, and notes calls on the UK Government to reconsider its position on the Fishing and Coastal Growth Fund allocation to better reflect the significant economic contribution of Scotland’s fishers and coastal communities.
