I fully agree with the concept of special areas of conservation, SACs, as any reasonable person must. However, in defining the areas, consideration must also be given to the farmers who are trying to make a living in those areas. They need to have fair levels of compensation. It would help enormously if those issues were addressed and an effort made to deliver on them. There are cost issues involved and we have to deal with them. I am not sure what is the best approach but it is very clear that those issues are currently impacting on farmers.
