I have no plans to extend the boundary of this Special Area of Conservation. Proposals for the future restoration and management of this site, and how the needs of turf-cutters there are to be addressed, are set out in the Draft National Raised Bog Special Areas of Conservation (SAC) Management Plan which is available on my Department’s website at.
