For data protection reasons, I do not propose to name the individuals from County Cork notified of the hen harrier Special Protection Areas (SPAs) designations in November, 2007. I can advise that my Department issued individual notifications to some 745 persons with addresses in County Cork, who were identified as having an interest in these sites. This group included land owners and land users and any other person identified as having an interest in these sites. My Department uses a variety of data sources to identify such persons, including the Property Registration Authority, the land parcel identification system used by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine and information on lands subject to forestry grants.
