It is a lot to read through and understand before attempting to give answers to the online questions, I suspect most folk will start to look at it and give up before finishing it :z6

If anybody has the time, perhaps they could run through the questions and any suggested answers?

  Would it have been a good idea if they had made the first question "Do you agree there is a need for a Wild Fisheries Reform Bill"?
    Answer " No ". ...  Questionnaire  completed.

I must confess that I have tried to fill this in twice now and given up before finishing :oops

I'm really struggling to class this online form as a 'consultation'.

This is not the consultation, but something a lot shorter and easier to understand ....... Have you read it?

I believe the 'SRG' is the Stakeholders Reference Group, which includes the Scottish Government, the Association of Salmon Fishery Boards, the Association of Scottish Still Water Fisheries, SANA and the Scottish Federation of Coarse Anglers?

I have just managed to complete the thing.   I did comment that the exercise would have been a whole lot easier if each numbered Section  was immediately followed by the questions relative to it. 
   Forgive me if I appear somewhat selfish, but, as far as I can see the whole thing  seems geared to appeasing  our fellow anglers from the central belt.
   Things are fine here.   Do we need any more layers of government interference ?
