The Environment Minister’s denying he’s at odds with the Tanaiste over a ban on the sale of turf.
The Fine Gael leader said last night that the ban – due to come into force in September – will be paused because of the current energy crisis.
Leo Varadkar told his parliamentary party meeting that telling those who cut turf that they now can’t was like telling the French they couldn’t drink wine or the Italian’s they couldn’t eat pasta.
However Eamon Ryan say he’ll work with his government colleagues to find a solution, but the measure won’t be paused
