People have told me that Coillte is not honouring its financial commitments in that regard in some partnerships. A payment is to be made from year 20 and there are people who have been waiting a period of time for that payment who are now surviving on nothing because they received a premium up to year 20. Perhaps it is year 22 or 23 now and they have not received any money from Coillte.
