asked the Minister for Energy the number of applications which have been received over the last ten years for licences to fell trees; the number which have been granted; and the areas for which they have been granted.
Written Answers. - Tree Felling Licences.
Two thousand, three hundred and twenty-nine applications for felling licences were received and 989 licences granted during the period 1 October 1978 to 30 September 1988. It is not possible to state the areas involved as felling licences are often issued in respect of numbers of trees rather than areas.
