Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 22 June 2016
209. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the reason a person (details supplied) in County Donegal has not yet received an information pack pertaining to the designation in respect of the special protection area in which Inis Meáin Island is located; if he will make arrangements to have this person furnished with these documents; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17578/16]
View answerInis Meáin Island forms part of the West Donegal Islands special protection area (Site Code: 004230). A site pack was sent to the individual referred to in the Deputy’s Question when this site was proposed for designation in July 2011. I understand that this individual has had his appeal, in relation to the inclusion of his land within the special protection area, referred to the Designated Areas Appeals Advisory Board for consideration.
Site packs may be requested at any time by landowners from the National Parks and Wildlife Service of my Department.
