Mr. Tom Moylan:

I thank the Chairman. To go back to his point, and Mr. Mahon has touched on it, to achieve our targets over the next decade the practical measures that have been spoken about will help. There is the retrofitting of our public lighting and of local authority houses and the electrification of the local authority fleet over the coming years. They are concrete measures that can be taken. The role of our elected members is to set the policy for the local authority in any given local authority. When they are setting, reviewing or adopting that policy, it needs to be proofed for decarbonisation. That is the challenge for our members going forward, namely, that they bring in that way of thinking, going forward. These policy decisions, and major policy decision that they are taking need to be proofed for decarbonisation to ensure that not alone are the current climate action targets until 2030 achieved but also out to 2050, where we are looking for a 50% reduction in our emissions.
