Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals

Mr. Caoimhín Ó Ciaruáin:

The key thing is, the 51% abatement of CO2 from 2018 levels to 2030, is the amount of carbon that has to be delivered. Reduction has to be delivered. In transport we are looking a potential 51% delivery but it is an overall cumulative reduction in carbon across all sectors. The disaggregation of that budget will happen by Government and into the Oireachtas. Those decisions will be taken at that level.
