I wish to be positively encouraging in bringing this Bill forward. I also wish to make it more robust. It is a little limp at present due to the lack of definitions, targets and in respect of climate justice. It ought to be strengthened and made more robust in those three areas. We should not be afraid. Otherwise, the Minister is introducing a limp Bill that does nothing.

Well done to my colleagues, Deputies Broughan, Clare Daly, Wallace, Joan Collins and Catherine Murphy who made excellent and substantive contributions to the debate.
