- Abstract
- Policy AGG_01a of the Welsh National Marine Plan allows for tonnage limits to be defined for an area, where appropriate, thereby ensuring the long-term supply of aggregates resource without compromising ecosystem resilience. The Welsh National Marine Plan (12 November 2019) defines that a tonnage limit of not more than 800,000 tonnes (exclusive of licensed roll-over tonnage) of annual licensed aggregates will be allowed from Welsh waters in the Severn Estuary that lie to the east of a line drawn south-eastwards of Lavernock point. This limit may be reviewed from time to time and may be updated through a Cabinet Statement. Applications for new licence areas or increases in tonnage for existing areas will need to clearly demonstrate the need for the additional licensed resources, taking into account the need to ensure competition is maintained in the marketplace.
