Will the action plan for climate change that the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment is to announce in coming months tie in to whatever revised estimates that the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform may have to announce? I am glad to hear the Minister's commitment to the projects that are already there. It serves to re-emphasise a point I would make myself, namely, that the large infrastructural projects are needed to join up the dots for things that were missing during the lost years of the recession.
