6.28 Combined with reform to terrestrial planning, the Marine and Coastal Access Act (2009) has introduced a new marine planning and licensing system designed to provide regulatory simplicity and certainty for developers. Marine Plans will form a framework for sustainable development, and inform licensing decisions. Impact assessments have estimated that a completed network of Marine Plans in England will provide benefits of £50 million per year in reduced industry burdens due to the greater certainty and the evidence base that plans will provide. This is in addition to anticipated localised socio-economic and environmental benefits. The approach has support across industry stakeholders and environmental groups for providing regulatory simplicity and certainty, backed up by clear evidence and the involvement of stakeholders and coastal communities. The Marine Management Organisation is currently engaging with stakeholders as part of its development of the first two English Marine Plan areas, with a complete network of Plans to be in place by 2022.
