Forestry Strategy: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2023-01-26
============================================================

Matt Carthy (SF), Cavan-Monaghan

The Government is out of touch with the people we will need to deliver this programme. We need farmers, but the Government has alienated them. We need the forestry sector, but the Government has alienated it. We need local communities, but the Government has alienated them and disengaged them from the process. Unless the Government realises these failures, it will not be able to address them.
