There are licences that issued out of the 169 in the past two months that date back three and four years. I am a farmer. I presume the Department will accept that if farmers are waiting two or three years for decisions, they would move on to something else.

I presume the witnesses accept that. In the past year, were they instructed by a Minister to prioritise Coillte applications?
