The Department of Housing, Planning, community and Local Government have taken the lead in the transposition and are in regular contact with the European Commission. This Department has transposed the Directive in respect of Forestry with effect from 24 May this year. We are now progressing with the transposition of the Directive into the Agriculture and Aquaculture sectors.
