I will focus first on the implications of the carbon budget for rural Ireland with limited transport provisions. Given that 50% of the emission reductions in the transport sector by 2030 is considered the most difficult of all sectors, will the Minister elaborate on the measures to reduce the total number of kilometres travelled by vehicles by 20%? How does he plan to encourage and incentivise individuals to adopt alternative modes of transportation or reduce their overall reliance on private vehicles?
