Offaly County Council

First Irish local authority to adopt a timber purchasing policy.

Offaly Co Council became the first local authority in Ireland to formally adopt a timber purchasing policy in 2001.

Unfortunately the policy was never implemented. After some public protest (photo) outside the Council offices and subsequent discussion on the Housing, Social and Cultural Strategic Policy Committee (SPC) an updated DRAFT Timber Policy was submitted by Just Forests to Offaly County Council in January 2009 and is available to download here.
