Mr. Fergus Moore:

I will probably pass the Senator over to my colleague, Mr. Seamus Dunne, but I confirm that the SEA process is well advanced. We cannot complete it until the forestry programme State aid rules have been agreed. We are still waiting for the final detail. The SEA process is very well advanced. We are waiting for clarification from the Commission that what we have proposed is acceptable to it. Mr. Dunne might give more detail on some of the issues at a high level which have been raised by the committee.
