Forestry (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2020 [Seanad]: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2020-09-30
============================================================

Richard Boyd Barrett (PBP), Dún Laoghaire

Decisions issued by the Department on felling up to the end of August were way down, from nearly 3,500 at the end of August last year to just 1,040 this year. The issue of the supply of timber to sawmills lies at the door of the Department, not the environmental blackguards or the appeals committee.
