Forestry Sector
Dail Éireann — 2022-07-14
============================================================

Martin Browne (SF), Tipperary

I have to agree with Deputy Cairns. This is one of the issues that we dealt with more than any other at the Joint Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine. I would love to see the figures the Minister of State is using because everybody in the sector says the Department will not reach the target this year. No one, other than those in the Department, is convinced the target will be reached this year. The stakeholders keep telling the Minister of State that.
Can we see the figures? Deputy Cairns is correct. The Government will not meet the target this year.
