Perhaps the Minister might comment on when we in the Houses of the Oireachtas might see the carbon budgets. Also, I ask him to reference the opportunity there will be for stakeholders to engage in the process and when they might have that opportunity.

On the broader question, and I am not entirely clear in relation to it, of the relationship between the fiscal, economic and climate objectives, are there conversations at governmental, ministerial and departmental levels as to how we are going to square all of that? My understanding is there is a McKinsey report that has not been published. Is that being factored into considerations? How are we going to align, because it is essential we do, the climate objectives with the economic and the social objectives?
