Ms Karin Dubsky:

There are two points. Around the nature restoration law, there is a fear, based on past experience, that things could go really wrong. I believe the lessons learned are that it must be more participatory. The national Government is to make a plan on how to do this and it cannot be left to a few people. It must be exemplary and participatory, where all the options are looked at, as well as what guarantees there are so that there are no bad surprises. It is something that we will all own. I have seen other schemes that also did not work, like the ground nesting sand heaps for bees. That did not work but it still stayed. The point is valid, but it is up to the elected representatives to ensure that the restoration plan has adequate oversight and that is a good plan.
