Tipperary couple win appeal for information about environmental impact of land sale
The Court of Appeal has overturned a “flawed” decision by the Commissioner for Environmental Information that information sought from State forestry agency Coillte about a substantial lands sale in Co Tipperary was not “environmental information.”
The Commissioner must now, in light of the COA findings, reconsider Jim and Mary Redmond’s request for disclosure of information relating to Coillte's late 2013 sale of almost 403 hectares of lands and forestry at Kilcooley Abbey Estate, Thurles.
