FACT
came into being to represent all angling and fisheries interests to government
and NGOs, to promote the sport of angling and to encourage more people to participate.
FACT
will continue the work previously carried out by the individual bodies in representing
angling and fisheries interests to government and NGOs, and will act as the focal
point for consultation on both fisheries and angling matters. The new organisation
will provide support to the various committees serving angling and fisheries and
incorporate them into its future structure. Other

in England and Wales. Whether
you are a member of an affiliated body or not, the above structure claims to represent
you, as an angler. If you feel it does not then you need to join one of the groups
as an individual or as an affiliated organisation and make your voice heard. If
you are not a subscribing member to part of the structure and if you are not making
your voice heard within the structure then no one can hear you. |
