Mattie McGrath: I also wish to refer to forestry, and the Taoiseach mentioned seeing the wood from the trees. Are there wood partitions in the Cabinet room because the Minister, Deputy Rabbitte, says one thing and the Taoiseach says another? In my area, groups such as Knockmealdown Active and Galtee Walking Club are concerned about what is happening to Coillte. I appeal for clarity. With regard to the...
