The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Richard Benyon)
Today I am launching a triennial review of the Marine Management Organisation. The Marine Management Organisation was set up in 2010 to make a significant contribution to sustainable development in the marine area, and to promote the UK Government’s vision for clean, healthy, safe, productive and biologically diverse oceans and seas.
Triennial reviews of non-departmental public bodies are part of the Government’s commitment to ensuring accountability in public life.
This review will be conducted in accordance with Government guidance for reviewing non-departmental public bodies. The review will be carried out in an open and inclusive way and interested stakeholders will be given the opportunity to feed in their views. I will announce the findings of the review early in 2014.
Further information on the review is available on the Government website.
