Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Joint Meeting with Joint Committee on Environment and Climate Action
Remits of Committees: European Court of Auditors
1:30 pm
Mr. Tony Murphy:
As I said at the start, climate is a big proportion - approximately 30% - of the work of the European Court of Auditors. As we have quite limited resources, however, the number of topics we can do in a year is 11. We have to choose between the different topics. For instance, a report on urban pollution will be published in December 2024. We published a report on smart cities a while ago. An area of work that is just starting and on which a report will probably be published next year is suburban passenger transport around major metropolitan areas. We look at these types of issues from different aspects.
