Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

I ask the Taoiseach specifically about the proposal for a green IFSC, which was one of the recommendations of the high level action group on green energy. That group reported one year ago. The Taoiseach tells us the feasibility study for the IFSC steering group was submitted in May 2010. It appears we have not heard anything further on it. A report in one newspaper in September indicated proposals were expected to go before Cabinet in the coming weeks. Have any proposals been put before the Government in respect of the green IFSC? The Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources, Deputy Ryan, stated a project team would be established in 2010 to progress the proposal. Has that team been assembled?
