Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Forestry Strategic Vision: Coillte

Ms Imelda Hurley:

The commercial woodland will require a more traditional fund whereby one would be seeking to access long-term investors. That fund would be focused more on productive forestry. We do not have the level of capital that is needed, so we need to access capital. To answer the Deputy's specific question, I can say that we are in advanced stages of engagement in terms of that fund. However, there is a way to go. There are third parties are involved, and I am not in a position to name them at the moment.
