Earlier, Dr. Aoibhinn Ní Shúilleabháin presented the report of the Citizens' Assembly on Biodiversity Loss. It is vital that we avoid the sort of divisive debate that we are seeing in Europe on this issue, especially as it is both urgent and vital. Given that a committee is to be established within the Oireachtas - it is the climate committee - it is important that it will have the support of resources of Government in order that in the short timeframe available we can turn the assembly's recommendations into workable proposals that can lead to us confronting this issue. I ask the Taoiseach for support for such an approach.
