Ms Marie Donnelly:

It is not that we suddenly decided to change methodology just because we thought it was a good idea. We have adopted the newer techniques that are being used by the IPCC. These newer techniques are being used because they are more comprehensive in their assessment of the impact of greenhouse gas emissions. They allow us to differentiate between short-acting and long-acting emissions, which is particularly relevant in the Irish context. They allow us to consider a wider range of emissions, for example, fluoride gases, and they allow us to scale it up at a global level. It is not that we did not like the Paris one and, therefore, decided to change methodology. This is a more comprehensive, structured approach, which is being used by the IPCC and we have followed as part of the analysis and preparation for these budgets.

On the specifics of what CB1 and CB2 would look like, I am afraid I do not have those numbers. I am not too sure whether my colleagues can comment.
