Joint Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation
Development of Indigenous Irish Enterprise: Discussion
Mr. Leo Clancy:
I am not sure how far we take that into account. I can certainly look into the question and come back to the committee. I do not know how far we go. It depends. We are at the early stages of measuring our carbon impact for a number of our clients. The Deputy will see, under the climate action plan, we have targets around some of the emitting sectors. We will look at that. I cannot commit that we do have it in all our schemes, at present, but we will integrate it. We have committed that during quarter 1 this year, we will have a process of assessing carbon emissions as part of any grant application we make. We will certainly take the Deputy's comment into consideration.
