Please reconsider your decision to cut the funding for this very important piece of ongoing research.Seabird populations around the UK are under stress at the present time. It is essential to gather the scientific data to gain a true picture of their numbers. This work is exactly the kind of project which should be fully supported.

Its so important to monitor the guillemots after the winter storms

This negates all the previous effort and is one of the poorest management decision I have ever come across.

It's vital to continue this sort of long term monitoring in order to be able to see the effects of climate change and to understand how best to protect this species and it's habitat. The funding required is a relatively small amount in terms of the overall budget.

I work on Skomer and know how important this study is. To cut the funding at this critical time, after the winter storms and with climate change accelerating, is ludicrous!

This study is very important and more so after the severe weather of last winter

How are we cutting funding for long term sea bird research when sea bird colony's are collapsing in Britain. We need monitoring of our seabird colonies more than ever.

Bad move and the continue monitoring of seabird populations must continue

NRW seem to have lost the plot. This decision is a disgrace.
