Matt Carthy
Ceist:1464. Deputy Matt Carthy asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine if consideration has been given to expand the reconstitution and underplanting the ash dieback scheme to include forestry not part of one of the four referenced schemes in section 6.6 of the scheme outline of June 2020; if consideration has been given to expanding the scheme to include forestry over 25 years old and if not, the reason for the 25 year limit; if his Department is limited to only provide funding in relation to existing schemes; if consideration has been given to a similar scheme for forestry that falls outside of the criteria; the reason for prioritisation of more recently planted forestry rather than older forestry and associated biodiversity; if all correspondence, reports, briefings and materials relating to the matter will be provided; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
