Vol. 111 No. 10

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Kilworth Timber (Cork).

asked the Minister for Lands if he will state whether the standing timber at Moore Park, Kilworth, County Cork, is fit for commercial use or whether there is any timber there fit only for firewood; furthermore, if he will make available from this park to the local authority some firewood timber for distribution among the deserving poor of Kilworth area at a reasonable price.

Moore Park is administered by the Office of Public Works, but felling of trees there has been done in consultation with the Forestry Division of my Department. I am advised that the last of the trees of firewood quality were marked for felling in 1944.
