A public meeting will be taking place in the midlands on the issue this weekend.
Farmers and the broader public need to be "brought up to speed" on the Nature Restoration Law working its way through the EU.
That's what Galway-Roscommon Deputy Michael Fitzmaurice is saying ahead of a public meeting in the midlands on the issue this weekend.
There's currently a proposal from the EU Commission that's been held up in Parliament due to environmental objections.
While a European Union Council of Ministers proposal, which would focus more on State owned land, is being championed by speakers at Sunday's public meeting at the Shearwater Hotel in Ballinasloe.
Independent TD Michael Fitzmaurice says consultation with the farming community on these differing approaches is crucial:
