Tree felling powers
The Taoiseach says local authorities already have power to remove trees posing a public danger, rejecting the need to extend the deadline. The exchange continues with interruptions and arguments over whether the restriction applies after 1 March.
I do not have a date for publication of that Bill that the Deputy mentioned. As the Deputy is aware, local authorities have the power already where, if trees are deemed to be a danger to the public, they can deal with them.
