The Broads Authority is the agency which has statutory responsibility for the Broads in England. Originally, the Nature Conservancy Council (now Natural England), pressed for a special authority to manage the Broads which had been neglected for a long time. In 1978, the forerunner to the present-day Broads Authority was established by the Countryside Commission (now also Natural England). Ten years later, it had become clear that a statutory body was needed, and a special Act of Parliament, ''The Norfolk and Suffolk Broads Act'' 1988 (referred to as ''the Broads Act'') made the Broads Authority into a special statutory authority which gave it parity with national park authorities. ==Responsibilities== The Broads Authority has to: *conserve and enhance the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage of the Broads *promote opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities of the Broads by the public *protect the interests of navigation (as navigation authority) *have regard for agriculture and forestry *have regard for the economic and social interests of those who live or work in the Broads. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Broads Authority」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
