Written answers

The provision of wood pellets in the Irish market is a matter for the producers and importers of the product. I am aware that there are some local market issues which have resulted in a shortage of wood pellets in the Irish market. However, I understand that wood pellets are an internationally traded commodity and there is no shortage of this product worldwide. I believe, therefore, that this situation will rectify itself shortly.
