Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Impact of Peat Shortages on the Horticulture Industry: Discussion

Mr. Brian Lucas:

There has to be balance in the working group, as I have said already in my opening statement. Obviously, the key Departments need to be there. There needs to be industry representation, as well as representation from the non-governmental organisation sector. I believe there will be balance in the working group. We are coming towards the end but what my Department, the Minister of State, Deputy Noonan, and I are trying to do is to facilitate a solution to this issue. I hope I can play my part in that, as can the Department and the Minister of State.
