1. Introduction

The hunting of game, deer and other quarry species are amongst the oldest form of forest recreation which continue to be legally enjoyed by many people across the country.

Respecting the traditional nature of this activity and recognising the social, environmental and economic benefits’ which hunting can contribute, Coillte may permit certain types of hunting on their estate where it is deemed both compatible with forest management objectives, and where it is not considered to either compromise the safety of other forest users or negatively impact populations of quarry species. This, Coillte consider is in line with both the Companies Recreational Policy and Deer Management Policy, as well as supporting the principles of multiple-use forestry. All such hunting is managed and regulated through the issue of licences.

The allocation of licences to hunt and shoot deer, game (and other quarry species) is undertaken by means of open public tender. Tender bids are invited for licensed areas as they become available, these bids are evaluated based on a “Points Scoring System” whereby cognisance is made of the annual fee offered, the applicants previous experience, their commitment to safety as well as environmental and other local interest considerations.

All persons wishing to hunt deer on Coillte lands must satisfy Coillte’s training / qualification requirements as follows:-

Currently the minimum qualification required by all Licensees and holders of Annual Stalking Permits (unrestricted) is the Hunter Competence Assessment Programme (HCAP) - refer www.deeralliance.ie. or the Country Sports Deer Stalking Training Course (completed since March 2018 to include assessment of related Irish legislation) www.countrysportsireland.org qualifications.

Coillte may also require permit / licence holders applying for certain licensed areas, to hold qualifications which certifies an individual’s practical competence in undertaking certain deer management functions, for example the Deer Management Qualifications –DSC level 2 , and / or, to participate in practical based training workshops (refer to notes on page 5)

Coillte have produced codes of practice which establish minimum standards expected of all persons engaged in these activities alongside compliance with National legislation and conditions of the relevant licence agreements

For full details relating to licensed hunting on Coillte lands, and to view documents and procedures referred to above please refer to the Permits and Licences section on www.coillte.ie
