This report estimates the economics and employment statistics for marine activities in the UK economy. For 2005-06 direct marine-related activities comprised 4.2 per cent of the total gross domestic product, to a total value of £46 billion. Of the total UK employment, 890,000 jobs were marine-related, 2.9 per cent of the total. This gives a total direct and indirect contribution of marine activities to the UK economy of between 6.0 and 6.8 per cent. The contributing marine activities were split into 18 sectors: fish; oil and gas; aggregates; ship and boat building and repairs; equipment; marine renewable energy; construction; shipping operators; ports; navigation and safety; cables; business services; licence and rental; research and development; marine environment; defence; leisure and recreation; education. Oil and gas was the largest sector, and with other extractive industries accounted for 48 per cent of all marine activities. The report also discusses the feasibility of generating a regular marine economics indicator, as is now being attempted for the USA and Canada.
