Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Modern Construction Methods: Discussion
Mr. Se?n Balfe:
Agrément certification is a voluntary process and is product-specific. The Deputy mentioned Coillte or another body applying for it - the manufacturer is the one who needs to apply. Part of the process is looking at the procedures for the design and manufacturing of the product itself. Coillte does not manufacture CLT, as far as I know, so it would not be appropriate for it to apply. It is product-specific and part of the process is examining the manufacturer's quality controls.
