View answerOutstanding issues in regard to the Shannon Callows are being addressed within the wider discussions under Sustaining Progress on the review of the 1997 habitats regulations. I met the farming organisations in that context on 31 March and officials of my Department and of the Department of Agriculture and Food had a further meeting with them on 19 April. A further meeting at official level has been arranged for 11 May with a view to finalising agreement on relevant matters, including Shannon Callows, to the satisfaction of all concerned.
