I am arranging to have a schedule of the proposed National Heritage areas, (NHAs) Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) and Special Protection Areas (SPAs) forwarded to the Deputy. At present my Department is prioritising work on the European SAC and SPA designations. As this process is brought to conclusion over the next year or so I envisage greater attention then being given to the NHA designations.
