I have number of questions. The findings in the survey show a large number of initiatives in primary schools. There is the Green Flag initiative and a range of other initiatives. Some primary schools have nature walks, nature gardens and gardening in general. I find this often falls off when it comes to second-level education. On foot of the findings in Belvedere College, are people more aware about the climate in primary school? Are there far more initiatives at that level than in secondary schools? With regard to the findings from the survey, how can the committee help to develop a pilot or policy change for the Department of Education or other Departments to engage with younger people?
