There is a very vexed question around targets and how they are managed. What is Dr. O’Gorman’s view of the proposed composition of the expert advisory group? Does he believe it will have sufficient independence? There has been an emerging theme that the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government might not be the most appropriate Department to do this work. Some have suggested that the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources or the Department of the Taoiseach should do it.
