Forestry Sector: Statements
Seanad Éireann — 2025-04-29
============================================================

Sarah O'Reilly (AON), Agricultural Panel

Like everybody else, I want to mention ash dieback. I have been a county councillor for nine years. It is especially urgent along roadsides. Also, there are instances of antisocial behaviour in forests owned by Coillte. It is a big problem in a lot of the small amenity parks. We might consider park wardens or something along those lines.
