Mr. Eamon Gilmore:

No I would not say that. In terms of the Santos Government and the present Government, the responsibility to protect the ecosystem and to make their contribution in the context of climate change is very strong. There are a number of programmes which the Government is working on. I have talked with the Minister for agriculture and the Minister for environment about those programmes. It is not just one Government. There has been a continuity of policy in this area. It is a state that is very conscious of its responsibility to the environment and its global responsibility to participate. It is also a state that is very conscious of its international responsibilities. It is very much a multilateral state in its approach to issues like this. Obviously it needs support and we can we can provide that support.
