Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Supporting a Just Transition: Discussion
Ms Anna Marie Delaney:
On the holistic plan that is being developed by the START programme, there is a significant amount of community engagement in that and it is about reassuring communities that they are not alone. There is an audit of bog communities affected, and the development of a suite of community resilience supports is to be worked out as part of that. Development of social enterprise and well-being in those local communities needs to be part of the plan.
