Coastal Zone Management
In 2002, the Scottish Deputy Environment Minister, Allan Wilson stated that

" Scotland can proudly claim to be one of the leaders in addressing coastal management within Europe ".

"Within this latter initiative [Firths Initiative] we currently have a system of voluntary partnerships originally set up for our major Firths but developing to cover other areas where a need is recognised. This consensus-based approach has proved invaluable to coastal management and the partnerships have achieved a great deal. They deserve wide recognition of that fact."
