Mr. Jonathan White:

Client Earth supported the European citizens' initiative, which is probably a potential model for answering the Deputy's question. Public transport is the subject of modal shift under decarbonisation pathways and, therefore, is not something that should be discouraged. I can provide the draft law that was used as part of that initiative. The answer is that it should be targeted effectively to exclude services of general economic interest, which is a concept under EU law that effectively means public transport in this instance. I imagine that it would not be beyond the wit of the legislature in any member state to specify what sort of things ought to be excluded because they are aligned with climate action. That is the way it was framed. It basically caught fossil fuel businesses in the business of extracting, refining and supplying fossil fuels and effectively petrol car and aviation businesses. That was the scope of it.
