There was no explanation of the carbon dividend model in it. There was no sharing of the ESRI analysis or the international experience. This is a very complex subject that people are very sceptical about. Why did the Department include no explanation of one of those nine options which was one that we specifically wanted it to consider and which the Taoiseach supported at the time? Why did the Department's consultation document look at just about everything else but say absolutely nothing about the carbon dividend model?
