Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Forestry Policy and Strategy (Resumed): Discussion
Mr. John Murray:
First of all the point about the 20% marginal is a very good point, especially given what the Deputy said about the land use change that is coming against us. Any land that is marginal and suitable for timber, if the landowner wants to plant it, he or she should be allowed to plant it. It is as simple as that. Bureaucracy, red tape or opinion should not get in the way of that.
