Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure, Public Service Reform and Digitalisation, and Taoiseach
Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals
2:00 am
Ms Fiona Ralph:
I can come in on the new MFF in general. As Mr. Condon mentioned, while it is still at an early read-through stage and is a Commission proposal that will no doubt be massively amended by the member states and the European Parliament before the end, the Commission foresees significant proportions of funding to climate, the clean transition and this kind of area. The trade-offs mentioned by the Cathaoirleach in terms of the purposes of different kinds of expenditure and the effects they can have on one another comprise a very important issue, one that we and all other member states will need to be playing close attention to.
