Turf cutters will be allowed to continue to sell turf to their neighbours and “traditional” channels will be protected, under new plans by the Government.
Coalition leaders have come up with a new plan to solve the controversial proposed ban on the commercial sale of turf.
Sources have confirmed that the proposed regulations will have no effect on the cutting or burning of turf by those with turf-cutting rights, under plans expected to be agreed by Taoiseach Micheál Martin, Tanáiste Leo Varadkar and Green Party leader Eamon Ryan on Monday night.
