Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment: Estimates for Public Services 2017: Vote 29 - Communications, Climate Action and Environment (Resumed) (5 Oct 2017)

Timmy Dooley: I thank the Minister for his update. My question is less on the Estimate and more on our future capacity. It is similar to that asked by the Chairman. Recognising that we are behind in reducing the amount of energy lost through heat, does the Minister feel the grant system in place is sufficient to meet the demand in the context of meeting our targets? Should the committee help the...

Priority Questions: National Mitigation Plan (4 Oct 2017)

Timmy Dooley: The Minister spoke about the Environmental Protection Agency's report of March 2016, indicating that projected emissions in 2020 in Ireland could be in the 4% to 7% range.

It will depend on the cost of carbon credits, but fines may, of course, be very significant. It...

Priority Questions: National Mitigation Plan (4 Oct 2017)

Priority Questions: National Mitigation Plan (4 Oct 2017)

Timmy Dooley: Both. The Minister knows the decisions he must take in order to move the public. It requires much greater incentivisation to move people into electric vehicles, which will to some extent address some of our issues. We are way behind in the deep retrofitting of homes on the heating side. We may miss our target for the use of renewables in the electricity sector. There is still a very...

Priority Questions: National Broadband Plan (4 Oct 2017)

While the process remains open-ended, the Minister knows full well that it...
