5th September 2017

Thérèse Coffey MP, Parliamentary Under Secretary of State at the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, met staff at JNCC’s  Aberdeen office yesterday. The Minister visited scientists based at Inverdee House, Torry, to learn more about their work advising government on marine nature conservation. The visit focussed on JNCC’s UK and international marine work, including seabird science and international fisheries. The Minister spent time chatting to staff during a series of deskside presentations and got a chance to ask questions and gain further insight into JNCC’s work.

Marcus Yeo, JNCC CEO “It was great for our scientists to be able to chat to the Minister and give her an insight into the work we do across the UK and internationally.”
