Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

The Role of the Media and Communications in Actioning Climate Change: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Orla Twomey:

In respect of the ASAI's position on this, I do not have all the answers. It is still a work in progress; it is something we need to look at. We see it as a shared problem that requires a shared solution. We have been talking with EASA colleagues about how to address some of these issues. The issue raised by the Deputy relates to whether particular product types should have declarations in the advertising as to their emissions. There are legislative requirements around this but they are not within the ASAI code. It is something we can take away from and consider whether we should go further on this but I do not have all the answers. It is still a work in progress.
