Public Accounts Committee

2019 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 29 - Communications, Climate Action and Environment

1:00 pm

Mr. Frank Maughan:

-----2% and 4% below our 2005 levels as against a 20% target. The estimate of the additional costs of funding the purchase of credits to make up that shortfall remains, as the Deputy mentioned, between €6 to 13 million. That has not actually changed as an estimate. It will be another year before we have a final estimate because the 2020 numbers will not be available from the EPA until later this year and it is only at that point will we be able to actually get a final fix on our estimated costs.
