Fisheries Task Force pleased at progress of Newlyn regeneration

The Objective One Fisheries Task Force met last week and expressed their continuing support for the progress of the future development of Newlyn. Following the public meeting in Newlyn on the 9th July, all members were pleased at the public support in Newlyn and the progress being made.

The Objective One Fishing Industry Task Force has 8 key projects to assist the development of Cornwall’s fishing industry. The development of infrastructure projects identified by the Newlyn Regeneration study is one of them.

Sam Lambourn, the Chairman of the Objective One Fishing Industry Task Force stated, “The development of Newlyn is key to the future of the fishing industry in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly as a whole. The Task Force is therefore watching the progress of the Newlyn Fish Industry Forum (NFIF) very closely and is greatly encouraged by recent developments and the public support. Naturally the Task Force will also be happy to help the NFIF if necessary to develop this key Objective One project.”
