Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Update on the Public Sector Climate Action Mandate: Discussion
11:00 am
Mr. John O'Sullivan:
To put it a different way, there is an issue in that the public sector bodies do not have the capacity or competency to deliver the scale of projects. Projects have to get bigger, we have to bundle projects together and we have to upscale and mobilise. One of the issues is that we are prioritising the smaller, more manageable projects and that is based on the capacity that we have. The Senator's point on developing internal capacity and competency is correct. It is something that has to be done and it is one of the blockages right now.
