answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/03/2016 answer text <p>Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty do not cover marine areas. However, this Government has made a commitment to complete a ‘Blue Belt’ of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) around our coasts. These sites will also contribute to an ecologically-coherent network of MPAs in the North East Atlantic.</p><p> </p><p>Over 17% of UK waters and almost a third of English inshore waters are now within MPAs. This includes 50 Marine Conservation Zones created since 2013. We are continuing to work towards designating further MPAs to complete the ‘Blue Belt’.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Camborne and Redruth answering member printed George Eustice question first answered 16/03/2016 16:57:49 answering member 3934 label Biography information for George Eustice

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 18/03/2016 answer text <p>Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) partnerships and conservation boards, along with National Park Authorities, are a vital part of the fabric of the nation. Whilst there are no current plans to either set out or implement a specific national strategy for AONBs, I recognise that they make a significant contribution to realising Defra’s wider ambitions for the natural environment, and they are engaged in our ongoing development of a 25 Year Plan for the Environment.</p> answering member constituency Penrith and The Border answering member printed Rory Stewart question first answered 18/03/2016 11:04:06 answering member 4137 label Biography information for Rory Stewart
