An Taisce is 'trying to bury rural Ireland'

The Irish Times

An Taisce has been accused of being a "faceless body" trying to "bury rural Ireland" through its objections to applications for single dwellings around the county.

The matter is now to be referred to the Minister for the Environment, Mr Dempsey.
