Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Sustainable Development Goals: Discussion
Ms Hannah Gilmartin:
I am not sure if anything changed. It informed us as we worked on the climate action plan. The lead authors of each chapter assessed their respective chapters. It gave us a greater sense of the various targets being progressed. I do not believe anything changed, but it informed us about targets that we were meeting but that we were not necessarily leading on, particularly those relating to gender equality and proofing against inequality of outcomes. Mr. Mooney does a great deal of work at the national dialogue on climate action. He was hitting many of these targets as well.
