That was the case, for example, when the government granted a private company a licence to rip out *1,860 acres* of wild kelp forest here in Bantry Bay.
Only through judicial review was that prevented. Once this legislation goes through, the only option left to communities will be direct action.

The evidence required to justify renewal of the derogation simply does not exist. It would be deeply unfair to farmers, as it locks them into a high-input, high-cost system that is environmentally unsustainable & increasingly incompatible with EU law, setting them up for a forced adjustment later.
