Mr. Gerry Egan:

Okay. On the strategic direction of Coillte and so on, I will comment first on the review of Coillte. As stated by Deputy Boyd Barrett, the previous Government announced a three part review of forestry policy. This included a review of national forest policy, on which a public consultation process is under way, a review of Coillte and a review of the financial incentives for forestry. In regard to the review of Coillte, while Coillte was the subject of the review, it was not conducted by the company. The committee would need to speak to the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine about that. It is not open to us to comment on that one way or the other because, as I said, Coillte was the subject rather than the conductor of that review.
