On the basis of indications from the European Commission the company was advised that it would, as a private law company, be eligible for the non farmer rate of forest premium.

Following consultations with the EU Commission in 1992 and up to 1999, when premium payments were terminated by the Commission, it was considered that as a private law company Coillte was eligible for the non farmer rate of forest premium.
