In terms of the initiatives being taken by Wicklow County Council itself, one of the actions in your policy is to investigate the alternatives to the application of glyphosate and to share all the lessons between municipal districts and other local authorities. To the best of your knowledge, are any local authorities communicating with each other on this? If the initiatives are to be taken and are to become the norm rather than the exception, there needs to be a more comprehensive approach to it overall.
