Turbary Rights
Dail Éireann — 2024-02-22
============================================================

Claire Kerrane (SF), Roscommon-Galway

Concerns have been raised about Department plans to impose buffer zones around areas where turf cutting is permitted in commonage areas and the very real impact this may have on scores under the agri-climate rural environment scheme, ACRES, and possibly reduced ACRES payments. Will the Minister give us an update on the Department plans on this?
