Mr. Seamus Boland:

We spoke to individual planners and local authorities. Again, they were a little nervous or reluctant to be drawn too much or certainly to be quoted individually in this report. We came across a number of planners who, with their permission, I would share with the relevant officials. They would have been interested and excited in being part of this, although some more than others. They are a little confused too. They are trying to do a whole range of different planning. We have not really done this before. As all who know about bogs are aware, the bog and the complexity around it is unfortunately not much part of the planning system. Therefore, a lot of new learning needs to be done.
