Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Forestry Strategic Vision: Coillte
Mr. Mark Carlin:
We have unprecedented demand at the moment for energy wood as one would expect with the cost of energy. We could not hope to meet the demand so we are trying to service our longer-term customers who have larger contracts, but if there are opportunities to help smaller operators, we are taking those opportunities. As I am sure the Deputy can imagine, it is difficult to meet the demand at the moment.
