A decision to grant a felling licence to the club in question will be taken following completion of consultations with the National Parks and Wildlife Service on environmental matters relating to the site. In this regard comments on the proposed felling were received by the Forest Service of my Department on the 16th February 2007 and these are currently being considered. The consultation process has already been completed with Carlow County Council and Southern Regional Fisheries Board in relation to the proposed felling and the site has also been inspected by the Forest Service Inspector for the area.
