Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Deputy Eamon Ryan took off like Usain Bolt.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 5 to 8, inclusive, together.

The Cabinet committee on infrastructure, environment and climate action last met on 30 January 2017. It is due to meet again later this month. The committee addresses the climate change challenge in terms of domestic policy and in respect of Ireland's EU and international obligations. In addition, the committee drives the development and delivery of key infrastructure and associated policy, including oversight of relevant commitments in the programme for Government. I chair the Cabinet committee and the membership is comprised of the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality; the Minister for Finance; the Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government; the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform; the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation; the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment; the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine; the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport; the Minister for Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs; and the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade.
