Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Impact of Peat Shortages on the Horticultural Industry: Discussion

Mr. Barry Delany:

We have no remit to engage given that we have no competence in the legislation. We still think that the immediate solution here is the regularisation of the sub-30 ha sites and to have small-scale extraction for the domestic market. As Mr. Lucas has outlined a number of times today, that is the quickest way to get it regularised.
