Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

TB Eradication Programme: Discussion

Mr. Eddie Punch:

No, it came up with meetings we had with Coillte, in particular regarding Wicklow. We made the strong representation that Coillte could not just wash its hands of it and allow its fences to fall down. It speaks to the fact that if there is to be more afforestation the burden of fencing around forestry must be designed in the expectation that deer will be a problem.
