I ask the witnesses to tell me about the two different planning types. My understanding is that if 30 ha are hydrologically separated, basically with a deep drain around the land as far as the lough, that would mean those hectares would come under different working arrangements than a situation where 30 ha of land is stuck onto a neighbour's holding of 20 ha or 30 ha, or more, like a high bog, to put it simply?
