Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications

Unconventional Gas Exploration and Extraction: Environmental Protection Agency

9:30 am

Mr. Dara Lynott:

There are a number of decision makers. It could be a policy issue in terms of an energy paper that could decide the policy for Ireland in a broad sense. There are regulators such as the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources which could say "Yes" or "No". So also could An Bord Pleanála, ComReg and the EPA. There are multiple gatekeepers to this whole process.
