There are two issues relating to LNG. The first is the potential for a State-owned, State-led and State-controlled temporary emergency LNG facility. The second is whether a commercial LNG facility is allowable or provided for under State policy. These two issues get conflated a lot. What is the State's policy position on commercial LNG? Will the Minister inform An Coimisiún Pleanála, which is clearly looking for that guidance, of that policy position?
