A decision on the application for an afforestation licence in the reference provided was appealed by the persons named to the Forestry Appeals Committee (FAC). The FAC is operationally independent of my Department and I cannot correspond with the Committee on any single appeal.

The FAC will be in direct contact with the parties to the appeal in relation to any hearing that may be scheduled and will notify them of the decision when it becomes available.
