This is the national legal position of burning rubbish in Ireland

Can I burn anything?

There is an exception for burning of green waste, for uncontaminated wood, trees, tree trimmings, leaves, brush or other similar waste arising from agricultural practices, providing it is the last resort.

All other more environmentally friendly forms of waste disposal such as reusing, recycling or fuel salvation must be investigated and attempted if possible.

This exemption only applies until January 1, 2018, after which time all burning will be disallowed, unless an application is made for a certificate of registration under the waste management (facility permit and registration) regulations.

Hedge cutting within the periods allowed is the preferred method which should be undertaken as an annual farm management task.

It is important to stay within the guidelines if considering hedge-cutting.

Since 2011, there has been nearly 40 prosecutions for illegal hedge-cuttings.

Such a prosecution may result in an unnecessary fine which could be avoided by following the guidelines correctly.

The period where hedge-cutting is not allowed is March 1 to August 31.

There is also the possibility of prescribed or controlled burning as a method of gorse management.

The season for burning of gorse is September 1 to the last day of February, and again, all other possible methods of land management should be explored; burning should be used as a last resort.
