Richard Bruton (Dublin Bay North, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank Deputy Nolan for her recognition of the work of the just transition commissioner, which is very valuable. As I indicated when the Government considered that report, we have implemented some immediate proposals, including the €11 million fund, which is now open for allocation. We have the €31 million that was agreed in the budget being rolled out in the midlands. Some of that work, such as retrofitting, is held up by Covid-19. As I indicated to Deputy Naughten, we will consider ways of funding accelerated rehabilitation of bogs, and we will look at all possible sources of funding.

I do not know whether the expressions of interest the Deputy requested are yet in the public domain. I will check that, and if they are, I will make them available to her.
