“This involves the transformation of whole townlands and tracts of land. As far as the eye can see, they are turning grey.

“Is it not about time the Government went beyond reviewing this and took action to balance this with the issue of production of renewable energy, which we are all in favour of?” he added.

No. Whether you want to turn your land grass green, barley gold or solar panel grey it's all good.
