Natural heritage area review

Summary

Deputy Fitzmaurice asked when legislation to de-designate natural heritage areas would be brought forward and when a wider review would take place. The Tánaiste said she would revert after asking the relevant Minister to reply.

Before the summer recess, it was proposed that legislation be brought forward to de-designate 46 natural heritage areas, NHAs. This legislation does not yet seem to have passed through the Dáil. When does the Tánaiste envisage it being brought forward? The programme for Government refers to a review of other NHAs. When will that review take place?

I will have to revert to the Deputy on both issues. I will ask the relevant Minister to come back to him today.
