My question relates to the binding agreement that was issued by the Department to bog owners and turf cutters regarding the cessation of turf cutting.

The difficulty is that if people do not have a relocation site in place within the time period, the Department can provide them with an alternative, which might be just a €1,500 compensation package, without access to bog relocation.
