Wildfires are a threat to people, property, wildlife and the countryside. The Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs (DAERA) are wanting to find out your views about how to address this threat. 

An online public engagement exercise has been opened seeking your views about wildfires and what we can do to reduce the number of wildfires in the countryside and to reduce impacts to the environment and to communities when such incidents occur.

Please access and submit your views on the NI Direct Citizen Space Consultation web-page under the ‘Reducing Wildfires in the Countryside’ survey.

This engagement exercise will close on 16 March 2018.
