Campaigners against the dumping of dredged silt off Rame Head are set to take their fight to the High Court once more. Legal action two years ago resulted in the dumping being halted for 18 months. But the Marine Management Organisation (MMO) has recently issued new licences for the depositing of material dredged from the River Tamar and Cattewater Harbour in Plymouth. ‘We believe that yet again the process that the MMO has followed in granting these licences is flawed,’ said Whitsand Bay resident and long-time campaigner Tonny Steenhagen. A judicial review must be filed within 90 days of the licences being issued, said Mr Steenhagen. To get things going quickly, he and his wife Deb Hoskin are funding part of the cost of the legal action themselves. The couple and a team of campaigners are now crowdfunding for the remainder of the initial £5,000 it will cost to prepare the case. ‘Judicial reviews are a costly exercise and we are grateful for any support people can offer. With the help of the same marine consultant and legal team as before, we are preparing to demand that the MMO reconsider their decision and revoke the current licences,’ said Tonny.
