A number of sea areas around Wales are currently being considered for possible identification as new Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) and Special Protection Areas (SPAs). According to scientific evidence, the areas concerned are considered to support internationally important populations of harbour porpoise and a number of species of seabirds.

Natural Resources Wales and the Welsh Government are holding informal local ‘drop-in days’ where interested organisations and individuals can come and find out more about the proposals and discuss them with Natural Resources Wales / Welsh Government staff.

Decisions on whether to designate further SACs and SPAs in Welsh waters are made by the Welsh Minister for Natural Resources, and no such decisions have yet been made. If the Minister decides to proceed with these proposals, they will be subject to full public consultation later in the year, before any decisions are made on whether to designate each area.
