Will the Minister not agree that a large amount of EEC money was made available in aid for western development? Further, will he not agree that the western area with its drumlin soil is ideal for this industry? There has been a complete collapse so far as private afforestation is concerned in that area.

I accept that, and I should like to express my disappointment at the level of take-up that there has been in the past for this facility. The money is very generous at £800 per hectare. Deputies will find in their mail either today or tomorrow a brochure——

Today.

——which gives them an outline of the various schemes. I ask Deputies to contact people they know who could avail of such facilities.

The document of the timber council was very critical.

I am talking about a brochure produced by my Department. It is informative and well produced and will give all the information.

The timber council beat the Minister to it.
