Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Supporting a Just Transition: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Michael Goodwin:
On the bog rehabilitation programme, we are talking to the European Commission about being able to provide additional funding over and above what Bord na Móna is required to do under its EPA licences. Bord na Móna is required to decommission and to rehabilitate to a certain extent. We are looking for additional funding for enhanced rehabilitation and restoration of the bogs, which would be over and above what Bord na Móna is required to do under the licence.
