Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Farm Foresty Partnership Agreements: Discussion

3:30 pm

Mr. Gerard Murphy:

Senator Paul Daly asked whether there was an intention to give legal advice.

I reiterate that all reviews of the files we have seen show that all farm partners had independent legal advice in both the contract formation and signing.

I will ask Mr. Stanley to reply to the question on what Coillte is doing regarding the value of timber. While we have covered this issue, perhaps Mr. Stanley will address it in more detail.
