Review of Storm Éowyn and Storm Preparedness: Discussion
2:00 am
Mr. Nicholas Tarrant:
On forestry corridors and the need for them, what we are looking for in the legislation is the ability to be able to go in and cut these corridors in a way that will provide resilience for the electricity network. There are other technical options for the network we are also exploring in parallel. Regarding the work we are doing currently around the stuff for the winter plan in advance of and during this winter, I will pass to Mr. Brady to talk about the success we have had in engaging with landowners around cutting at the moment.
