Our emissions grew by 4% last year.

I will ask a different question. The TRAM people presented to us. They estimate that to 2030 we have a 50 million tonne shortfall, and that this is something in the iterative process that we have to show and we have to start in 12 weeks' time. How are we going to close that gap? How much of that 50 million tonne shortfall does Ms Behan think transport would be responsible for in this iterative process, in this new national energy and climate action plan? How much of that 50 million is the Department of Transport, Tourism and Sport going to help us reduce?
