I fully understand the reason for establishing a trust for non-commercial timber as the timber will there for more than 200 years, so there will be no real financial return. However, with the income being generated by Coillte I must support Deputy Fitzmaurice and say I cannot understand why we are losing control of that land. Ms Hurley has told us there are Irish investors but, at the end of the day we, as a Government or a State body, will have no control over what these investors do going forward.
