I can advise that neither I or any officials from my Department attended the Climate Change Conference (CCC) in Sharm el-Sheik.

I understand that the Ombudsman for Children's Office and the Irish Human Right and Equality Commission will be reply directly on their own behalf in line with the normal practice and reflecting their statutory independence.

I am advised that no officials from the other bodies under the aegis of this Department attended the CCC.
