Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Compliance with the Nitrates Directive and Implications for Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Marie Archbold:

A report was submitted by the Department to the Commission in June. The EPA, in doing the report, included the red map to answer the four criteria for which the Commission asked. On page 21 of the report, there was a targeted measures map that the EPA put forward. That was a risk-based and evidence-based approach. Going forward, if the Commission is willing to listen and negotiate, those would be the criteria put forward.
