MSP issues Claims for space anno 2012
• No claims have signifcantly been reduced;
• Some existing claims have increased in surface;- nature conservation (new MPA’s in EEZ), - maritime transport (short sea shipping),…
• Other claims are likely to increase in the near future:- wind energy;- coastal defense –rise of sea level;- sea ports – expansion; …
• New claims are being considered:- new aquaculture technologies (extraction of seashells?);- renewable offshore energy (tidal energy?)- increase of shipping activities (logistic offshore platform?)

MSP drivers
• Users of the sea demand for MSP as an integrated MSP will lead to solve uncertainties and will attract investors (certainty, planning for the future)
• MSP will contribute to the success of other policy competencies; e.g. MSP will serve as a tool for the achievement of a Good Environmental Status by 2020 (as required by the European Union)
• European and international tendency to promote MSP

25 Marine Spatial Planning in 2012MSP = instrument, tool
Plan Content1. Spatial analysis of Belgian part of the North Sea
- Introduction- Physical aspects- Nature value- Existing user functions- Existing spatial structure- Spatial alliances and conflicts
2. Long term vision on spatial use
3. Clear economic, social and ecological objectives
4. Measures, funding, instruments and actions to implement the Marine Spatial Plan

Challenges
Multi – level governmentEuropean Union: policy targets (e.g., CFP, MSFD, IMP,…)
Federal State: general competency for North Sea Policy federal public services Internal Affairs, Mobility, Defence, Environment,…
Flemish Region: specific competencies fishing, dredging, sea ports, coastal defence, salvage and towage operations,…
Local authorities: coastal municipalities (e.g., beach)/province (e.g., disaster plan)

Opportunities and key factors for success Balance - between existing use of space / future use of space
Multiple use of space
Long term vision and objectives MSP – future perspective, no ad hoc approach
Transparency – intelligent use of bilateral consultation, well – informed decision,…
Stakeholder participation
Coherence between land and sea
Coordination within the Belgian state structure – respect competencies (federal, regional, local, international..)
Cross-border cooperation and consultation – potential “common” MSP, sea basin approach,...
