The report in question, A Management Plan for North Bull Island, was published by Dublin City Council in 2009 and based on the most recent information available, from 2007, during the preparatory process. North Bull Island has been designated by my Department as a Special Protection Area (SPA) under the EU Birds Directive and much of the SPA is also a candidate Special Area of Conservation. The issue raised in relation to the impact of the causeway and sedimentation is addressed in the report. It is a matter for Dublin City Council to implement the various recommendations as detailed in the report relating to this matter.
