New clause 2 deals with marine spatial planning. We need a spatial strategy for the ocean that links energy, fishing and nature restoration, and that has to be done in consultation with all the industries and with environmentalists, but this Bill is not the place to do that. New clause 3 deals with community benefits. Communities will benefit so much from the economic boost that this Bill will enable, with training and education, good jobs, supply chains and investment in our ports.
