My concern is that, at this time of focus on costs, sustainability will be regarded as an extra. In my view, sustainability is the enterprise strategy. If we do not put sustainability first, we are on a round track. It is great to have sustainability at the research level and to begin to start the conversation but there is a sense of urgency implying we need to put it front and centre in enterprise strategy. I ask Enterprise Ireland to consider this because we do not yet have the tools to allow us to say this is the case.
