My Department received 14 forestry applications for the District Electoral Division/townland in question for the years 2015, 2016 and to date in 2017. These applications included applications for approval for afforestation, for forest roads, for reconstitution and applications for payment of  premiums on forestry plantations. As the area referred to by the Deputy is a DED/townland it is not possible for data protection reasons to provide a further breakdown of the figures as that could reveal details of individual applicants.
