My Department was consulted by the Department of Agriculture and Food regarding this felling licence application and had no objection to the granting of the application. However, my Department noted that some of the trees are host to active rookeries and recommended that these particular trees be felled before 1 February 2007 to ensure that nestlings are not affected.
