Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Circular Economy as it relates to Construction Sector: Discussion

11:00 am

Mr. Eamonn Stapleton:

For this subject, yes. I believe it should be. There should be a higher bar set by the client, whether they are public or private clients, that recognises the situation we are in regarding sustainability and so on. There will always be room, I hope, for the industry to innovate. It will, whether it is the modular method of construction, digitalisation and so on.
