Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine in view of the fact that the Irish Farmers Association opposes the introduction of fees for licences and other unspecified services as it may act as a disincentive to farmers to convert land to forestry and a barrier to mobilisation of the increasingly valuable timber resource, if section 6(i) will be removed from the Forestry Bill 2013 as the introduction of charges for a forest owner to manage his or her forest is counterproductive to the expansion and development of the sector; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
