Taoiseach Micheal Martin has said there is no ban on the use of turf and there will be no ban “for the remainder of the year”.
Mr Martin said he wanted to “make it clear” while speaking in the Dail after a major row which Green Party leader Eamon Ryan has been told is threatening the stability of the Government.
Minister Ryan is adamant that the proposed ban on the commercial sale of turf will come into place from September 1.
