My proposal to publish the National Landscape Strategy 2015-2025 was approved by Government recently. The Strategy will assist in meeting our obligations under the European Landscape Convention, which was ratified by Ireland in 2002 and came into effect on 1 March 2004.
It is intended that the Strategy will be published and launched in the coming weeks. Implementation will take place on a phased basis over the lifetime of the Strategy.
