Government Relations
Our Aims
Our role is to bring the voice of the leisure marine sector to
the attention of the highest levels of Government, both within the
UK and the EU. By effectively highlighting the industry's role
in generating investment, regeneration, tourism and export
revenues, we are able to deliver the most favourable market
conditions possible for our members.
Standing up for your business
In this unprecedented economic climate it has never been more
important to have a strong voice in Parliament and across Whitehall
Government Departments. Whether its organising an MP visit to a
member's business, responding to a consultation or organising
Parliamentary briefings, we're always making sure that those who
need to know about our industry - do. In addition to our
significant in house experience we also equip ourselves with the
resources to get the job done effectively, by retaining
the leading public affairs agency, MHP Communications.
Member Focused
Despite all our knowledge and resources, the Government
Relations team relies upon its members to guide all that it does.
We literally bring MPs to your doorstep to listen to what you have
to say and we use your views as the foundation for all
consultation responses. Get involved today - see the links below to
