At that time government stated that ‘appropriate regulatory action under Article 6.2 of the Habitats Directive has been undertaken in an attempt to prevent deterioration of the Modiolus reefs’ and undertook ‘to comply with obligation in Article 2.2 of the directive to restore the Modiolus reefs to favourable conservation status.’
