Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Forestry and Climate Change: Discussion

Mr. Paddy Purser:

I thank the Deputy for the questions. There was a question on the replanting of land but it is not particularly relevant to us because it is a legal matter. Felling licences are issued for clear-felling, of which we would not be strong advocates. Normally it comes with an obligation to replant. That is not particularly relevant to continuous cover forestry.
