Eamon Ryan (Dublin South, Green Party)

I will be brief because we have gone through much of the detail of the Bill on Report Stage. I thank the Deputies for its swift passage through this House. I will bring it to the Seanad for consideration as quickly as possible because we want it implemented to help in the important task of keeping our energy price competitive.

I very much thank my officials because this is detailed and complex legislation, which was not easy to draft, but their work will stand us in good stead when it is implemented later in the summer and as we benefit from its provisions over the next two and a half years. I very much appreciate their work and the work of Members in helping its passage through the House.
