Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Building Reform Regulations: Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage
Mr. Se?n Armstrong:
Yes. On top of that we have these policy measures in place to support modern measures of construction. We have the standards system in place to support timber frame. It is then a matter for the market to compete. We will be introducing embodied carbon calculation methodologies after the adoption of the energy performance of buildings directive this summer. I believe the standards system is in place, we are putting in place the accounting frameworks and the regulatory system is able to assess that when it is presented to it.
