‹ Order of Business Forestry and Coillte assets
Summary
Mattie McGrath asks when forestry legislation will be modernised amid concerns about selling State timber and forestry assets; the Taoiseach says it is due this session.
I raise a serious issue which is of concern to people all over the country, namely, the proposed sale of our timber and forestry assets, including those held by Coillte. When does the Government intend to reform and update the legislative framework relating to forestry to support the development of a modern forestry sector? Can it not see the wood from the trees?
