Phil Hogan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

Deputy Tom Fleming mentioned the standardisation of EPA guidelines, which is of national importance. This is a worry for people because sometimes there is a difference in interpretation, which is the reason I will do everything I can to ensure there is standardisation in respect of all aspects of implementation of this measure.

As for Deputy Luke 'Ming' Flanagan, he is an environmentalist one day and the opposite the next.
