The Liberal Democrats said it was glad the government "has finally come to their senses and listened", but called for ministers to go further by bringing military accommodation to the decent homes' standard, which sets minimum standards for social home conditions.

These include 294 in national reserves, where limited commercial use of natural resourcesAnd 29 in the more strictly controlled national parks, where business operations are officially not supposed to be permitted.

Flavia Liberona is the executive director of Terram, a foundation that promotes sustainable development. In her hot and sticky office in an old building in the centre of Santiago she describes an environmental campaign that she's part of – Salvemos La Patagonia or Save Patagonia.It wants to protect the natural habitat of the entire Chilean Patagonia region. This vast geographic area starts north of Puerto Montt and then extends all the way down to the very base of the country. And it is where most of the salmon farms are located, in its many fjords."We want the salmon farms to stop operating in the national parks and national reserves," says Ms Liberona.

"The salmon farming causes various environmental problems. One is that the fish are kept in cages and fed with pellets."A lot of the pellets and fish faeces end up on the seabed and that leads to less oxygen which kills the sea life in the ocean underneath the cages, and depending on the current, elsewhere in the sea."

When these concerns are put to Mr Clement from Salmón Chile, he explains that there are different categories for the salmon farming concessions.

"In terms of concessions in the national parks we have 21 that we aren't using," he says. "We have told the government that we don't want to be there and asked to be relocated but nothing has happened for many years."British diplomats said the UK had decided to follow suit but only in return for business deals and a new commitment from Morocco to support the principle of self-determination, publish a new version of its autonomy plan and restart negotiations.

A procurement agreement between the two countries will "create a unique foundation for UK companies to access public tenders in Morocco", the UK Foreign Office said, pointing to deals in the health sector as well as contracts to upgrade Casablanca's airport.The joint communique reaffirmed both sides' respect for "the non-use of force for the settlement of conflicts and their support for the principle of respect for self-determination".

Previously the UK has always said the status of Western Sahara was "undetermined" and supported "self-determination" for the people there.Morocco's Foreign Minister Nasser Bourita welcomed the change in British policy, saying it marked an historic moment in the two nations' 800-year-old relationship.
