Committee on Budgetary Oversight

Budgetary and Fiscal Implications of Climate Change: Discussion

Mr. Frank Maughan:

As I said earlier, the overall envelope for the resources available for climate action is set out in the national development plan. As the Deputy identified, specific projects are listed in the project tracker published by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. Some of those projects feature in this plan. I suppose the two plans dovetail from that point of view. As I mentioned, this plan does not include specific costings because the approach that is being taken involves setting out what the most cost-effective way of reaching our targets will be.

Throughout the various sectors there are sets of targets that can be delivered by the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform-----
