Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Anaerobic Digestion: Discussion

Mr. Tony Breton:

I will keep it very brief because I realise we are out of time. I do not want repeat everything that Mr. Finan said. We fully agree with it. If one looks at it from the waste side, it is there. We have the waste now. Can we just get off the fence and do something? With all credit to the strategy, we do not need to go through a Bill and then a strategy for biowaste. We have biowaste ready today. We just need the system to be able to put them into tanks and make the gas.

I will repeat the end of my presentation. If members wishes to come and see a plant that has integration of AD and composting, we more than welcome the committee.
