We would point out that the existing habitat directive affords the government sufficient opportunity to step in when the implementation of existing projects is hampered by the habitat provisions.

Adoption of a new EU directive

The provisions of the Habitats Directive clearly establish that the responsibility for ensuring the management of Natura 2000 sites lies with the Member States.

Who will pay for the introduction of a strict protection system beyond the zones specified in the birds and habitat directives?
