Deputy Patrick O'Donovan asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation in view of the decision taken by the Shannon Airport Authority to allow farming organisations to cut grass on property owned by them to help alleviate fodder shortages in the local area, if he will ask those agencies, companies, authorities, boards and so on who come within his remit to consider similar initiatives on suitable public lands owned by them in conjunction with representatives of local farming organisations; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Written answers

The cutting of grass owned by the Agencies under my remit is an operational matter for the Agencies concerned, for which I have no direct function. I am referring the specific question to each of the Agencies under my remit with a request to respond to you directly.
