TellThemWhatYouThink doesn't work very well anymore

This site was set up in 2008, to help people find Government consultations more easily, and to show that it could be done: quickly and easily. The site has never been funded as such, and has relied on volunteers for maintenance and support. It hasn't had much maintenance recently and this shows: some consultations can't be found and some functions don't work as they should. We are currently seeking funding for a new version of TellThemWhatYouThink.

In the meantime, you can search a limited number of departments for open consultations at the Directgov Consultation Finder.

Amendment to the Order made under the Import of Live Fish Act 1980 (ILFA)

Consultation published by The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs View original »

Ref: 04/10

This consultation seeks you views on the Government's proposals to amend The Prohibition of Keeping or Release of Live Fish (Specified Species) Order 1998, and the subsequent Amendment Order 2003. The amendment is intended to restrict the availability of potentially damaging non-native species and thus lessen the chances of their introduction and spread into the wild. This would help prevent the threat posed by such species to native flora and fauna and the consequent damage to aquatic ecosystems from adverse impacts arising from their spread.

This consultation is aimed at environmentalists, the angling community ornamental fish traders.
