They were telling us how they were going to deliver more oil and gas more efficiently for us in the West to consume. They are certainly not moving towards reducing their production activities in any way, shape or form. In fact, Irish taxpayers pay some €2.5 billion a year to subsidise fossil fuels in this country. That might be a place to start looking at where we can use some of that money for a just transition for our own people as well.
