I welcome this Bill, which Sinn Féin will be supporting. I commend the Green Party Deputies who proposed the Bill and I join Deputy Catherine Martin in commending Sinéad Mercier on her Trojan work on the Bill and in the area of just transition. It is a little depressing that even before most of us have made our contributions to this debate, the Minister has signalled that the Government's dreaded money message may be brought down like an axe on the Bill and thus it will join a long list of Bills in respect of which money messages are required.
