I move amendment No. 158:

In page 17, between lines 8 and 9, to insert the following:

“(2A) The Minister(s) with responsibility for the energy sector shall prepare a sub-sectoral emissions ceiling for electricity generation in line with the target of net zero by 2030. Reduced emissions arising from this target shall not be carried over to other sectors of the economy or sub-sections of the energy sector, to which sectoral emissions ceilings shall apply.”.
