My Department is close to completion of its work on the Hen Harrier Threat Response Plan which will address various matters relating to the conservation of the Hen Harrier, and will discuss the draft Plan with the Consultative Committee, which includes many farming and forest sector representatives.

CAP reform is a matter for the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine. My Department will liaise fully with that Department  in regard to the next CAP, Natura sites and relevant nature conservation issues.

My Department also regularly meets with the main farming organisations to discuss all of the farming  issues around Natura sites.
