Share this post

Dear all,

Please see latest press release from Fisheries Management Scotland.

210407 – NR – Election Pledge

We would like to encourage anyone with an interest in the future of our wild salmon to contact the candidates in their constituency and region, asking them to commit to the three actions outlined in the news release.

These are to:

  • Make saving Scotland’s salmon a national conservation priority.
  • Fund the planting of native trees beside those rivers which Marine Scotland Science has identified as vulnerable to damaging temperature rises.
  • Implement in full the unanimous recommendations of the Salmon Interactions Working Group, which was established by the Scottish Government, comprising wild salmon conservation bodies and the fish farming industry.

Please support if you can.

many thanks
