Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Agriculture on Bogs.

8.

asked the Minister for Industry, Commerce and Energy if he is satisfied that an adequate depth of peat is being left on bogs to allow for their subsequent use for all forms of agriculture.

This is one of the matters which is being considered by an inter-departmental committee which I have established to investigate the possible uses of Bord na Móna cutaway bogs with a view to ensuring that they are properly developed and used in the best national interest and to supervise and co-ordinate whatever technical studies are considered necessary in this connection.
