A new forestry group has been formed to highlight and address the problems facing private operators in the industry.
The Social Economic and Environmental Forestry Association (SEEFA) is an alliance of private forestry professionals.

Kilkenny-based consultant Paddy Bruton said the immediate aim is to “prevent the complete demise of the private forestry sector”. He said SEEFA would seek to raise awareness around the “complete scandal” of the forestry licences issue. The new body wants to counter what he described as sidelining of forestry in discussions on the new CAP. “It is obvious from the recent townhall meetings on CAP that the Department is blind to all past mistakes regarding the integration of afforestation, forestry professionals and woodland management into CAP.”
