Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Regulation on Nature Restoration: European Commission

Dr. Humberto Delgado Rosa:

Absolutely. I am saying exactly that. We are bringing legal bindingness to the member states. They will have to follow the targets but the way in which they follow them does not impose anything against private ownership. That must be tackled implementing the nature restoration plans. If member states want to address it through binding measures, voluntary measures, incentives or whatever else, it is in their hands. There is nothing incompatible in our proposal with private property rights.
