Development of the Hemp Sector in Ireland: Discussion
Ms Chris Allen:
Hemp Federation Ireland has been working with an amazing community building project in Ireland. We are speaking with a company in Ukraine that has technology that can measure the project's entire carbon and energy values and building regulation requirements from seed to finished home. The project is ready to go and we would like to be able to present it as a research project and have the SEAI analyse the values and bring in the construction regulators to provide us with the standards for a hemp building. The project is incredible, yet we have to say "No" to all of these things. It is very sad.
