The Fine Gael MEP said she must vote with her conscience and cannot reject the proposals outright, believing it vital that the text is kept alive to protect the environment and biodiversity, while also safeguarding farming and rural communities. Like many others, Walsh does not agree with all aspects of the proposal, but she recognises that protecting biodiversity and ecosystems is crucial, as part of overall sustainability policies at EU level. Critically, she is also calling on the Irish Government to negotiate for dedicated funds for Irish farmers, in order to make nature restoration a realistic possibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cAs an MEP, I have a responsibility to vote for the good of my constituency, while also being cognisant that this Law impacts constituency, country and continent. I will be voting, essentially, to keep the proposals alive, and this will see me go against the EPP Group. This whole process has been politically contentious from the outset and I abhor the \u2018shaming\u2019 and the \u2018us vs them\u2019 narrative presented by activists and indeed other MEPs. This is far too important to use the debate to score political points against each other,\u201d she said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Continuing, MEP Walsh criticised the decision taken by the EPP Group to remove the political group from negotiations. \u201cAs parliamentarians, our role is to negotiate, compromise and work for the best of our communities. Up until now, I have not had the opportunity to vote on the text but today, I will do so, alongside 704 other MEPs. My vote will be reflective of the need to protect our planet for food security, biodiversity and climate change, but not at the expense of our young farmers and our rural communities,\u201d she stressed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MEP Walsh has had many discussions with farmers in recent months on the Nature Restoration Law debate, and the conversations had been consistent \u2013 soil health, water quality on farms, and community growth is imperative. \u201cThis shouldn\u2019t be an \u2018us against them\u2019 debate. I think both farmers and climate activists will agree that green initiatives require and deserve more funding, but equally, if we are going to implement a new legislation to restore biodiversity loss across the European Union, then we need to protect the livelihoods of those it affects the most,\u201d reasoned MEP Walsh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Highlighting her concerns with the text, however, the Fine Gael MEP said further clarity is needed on several points. \u201cNo clear legal framework has been outlined to date, and there is rooted confusion, and rightly so, from farmers on several of the lines in the text. Clarity is also required around the voluntary or involuntary rewetting of land, and funding is a major issue that needs to be addressed as a matter of urgency.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe keep moving the goalposts, especially for young farmers, and it is not good enough that our young EU farmers have not received a direct plan from the AGRI or ENVI Committees in the European Parliament, from the Irish Government, or from the Commission and Council. If the Nature Restoration Law is to succeed, then there\u2019s no doubt that amendments are needed, but rejecting the text outright simply isn\u2019t the answer,\u201d she added.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>-ENDS-&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For interview requests or media enquiries, please contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cr\u00f3na Esler,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Public Relations Manager,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>+353 87 987 2282<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>crona@mariawalsh.eu<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>About Maria Walsh<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mariawalsh-dot-yamm-track.appspot.com\/2_hQgVoppGUFUAMN1tyQBcLDd56YYIp-ygf0Jnw4IzJHawN_iiAFYBwX2Nld1vBmec2vmyiBrX_34D-r2LywlnNIHdthwq8R2HM6v6i_je2sLPWbthJoxNa-RBnlFSxFaUWmIMOM2FBXH4TKDlnJDJhQgYzQcUdPfY6itrWI_XQ7-sAX3muZh4y-BDaE\">Maria Walsh<\/a> is an Irish MEP for the Midlands-North-West.
