Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Supporting a Just Transition: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Brian Carroll:
There were existing schemes but the introduction of the increase in carbon tax brought an additional €90 million. Of that, an additional €20 million was for the retrofit as part of the just transition programme. It is additional money arising directly from the €6 increase in carbon tax.
