Mr. Nicholas Winfield at the Environment and Sustainable Development Committee

I'm trying to understand the question. I think you are referring to how much certainty we have that the actions we are proposing will prevent the reduction in the population, and the answer to that question is that it is only when there is sufficient habitat for the animals to survive that we have a likelihood of protecting the population.

I cannot guarantee the outcome, but without habitat, the animals have no possibility of reversing their population decline.
