Coillte was established as a private commercial company under the Forestry Act, 1988 and day-to-day operational matters, such as the management of its forest estate, are the responsibility of the company.

The matter was, however, raised with Coillte who advise that funding is available to carry out minor repairs following the recent harvesting operation. The company added that the repair and maintenance works will be scheduled once harvesting in the area is complete.
