As noted on an earlier posting on this blog, the closing date for submissions in relation to the Second Draft Discussion Document on the Deer Management Policy Vision published in September by the Inter Agency Deer Policy Group was 12 October 2012.

On the suggestion of the Wild Deer Association of Ireland, it was decided that a Joint Submission would be made incorporating the key concerns of the different deer organisations, together with Countryside Alliance Ireland.

The Joint Submission, compiled by Liam Nolan, was delivered on 12 October 2012 and is set out as a separate posting on this blog, for the information of all interested parties.
