Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Third Report of the Citizens' Assembly: Discussion (Resumed)
1:59 pm
Mr. Robert Watt:
Yes.
We have our target to keep the temperature below the level but the key issue for the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform is the estimated cost for the Department to meet the target. For example, let us take a figure for the cost of €32 per tonne, then policy decisions which cost less than €32 are worth taking, if that figure is correct.
