Lobby group says move would cut greenhouse gas emissions

The next government can dramatically cut greenhouse gas emissions with policies to boost the use of timber in construction, lobby group, Forest Industries Ireland says.

FII warns that the State is lagging the rest of the European Union in green construction. Governments across Europe are incentivising the use of timber through regulation and public procurement, it says.If you’re self employed, the time has come to file your tax return and avoid nasty surprises from RevenueFrance demands that 50 per cent of new public buildings be timber while the Olympic Village, built for Paris 2024, used 45 per cent timber in its construction, FII notes.

Mr McAuley points out that while Government policy is to increase forestry, new planting stands at just 2,000 hectares a-year. It is seeking supports for planting conifers, the industry’s “economic engine”, which produce the right type of wood for sawmills to manufacture building materials and other commercial timber products.
