Mr. Niall ? Donnch?:

I do not want to mislead the Deputy. National parks would, by and large, be either designated as SACs, SPAs or a combination of both. I cannot say offhand if it is 100% coverage in terms of that protection. By and large, it is a working assumption that we make because we are quite inquisitive. We have increased the area of the national parks by about 20% in the last seven years or so. Generally, what we are adding to the national network is of high nature value, some of which would be designated already and some of which needs designation. The working assumption is that they map over to be fully protected.
