To ask the Scottish Executive what plans it has for the future of freshwater fishing. I am today publishing a review and consultation document, Protecting and Promoting Scotland's Freshwater Fish and Fisheries, produced jointly by the Scottish Executive and Scottish Natural Heritage.The review covers the key issues affecting Scottish freshwater fish, including other species as well as salmon and trout and the consultation poses questions about the conservation of fish stocks, the management of rivers and access to fishing opportunities.I hope that this review will promote widespread discussion about these issues, and that it will lead to the development of a new strategy for freshwater fisheries in Scotland.Copies of the review and consultation document have been placed in SPICe.
