RE: DTI can allow this/ Then where is the 24thNO!
Its due to applications in Cardigan Bay (off the coast of Wales). These applications are close to, and may include a marine park which has Dolphins and Seals. There much protest in West Wales over this, causing political stink towards the Blair's labour Government (who through their Department, (the DTI)give out the licence.
Also, under new EC regulations, these parks require a more detailed Environmental pre-assessment done by the regulating authority (the DTI), prior to licensing them for Industrial activity. The DTI was in the process of doing this countrywide but had not finished and industry activity (hence requests for acreage) caught them in a bind.
