Ivana Bacik: Yesterday, I spoke of the Government being long on ambition but short on delivery in a number of areas, notably on the climate catastrophe.

Micheál Martin: The setting of such levels is extremely challenging. The Deputy heard the remarks of the previous speaker. She and I are at one on the climate crisis. I am not sure that is true of those seated to her left in the House because all I get from them are reasons we should keep delaying doing anything. It is urgent. We are very late to the table. In a global sense, climate change is...

Jennifer Whitmore: The Taoiseach says all the right things when it comes to climate. He talks about the stark challenges and urgency. Where is the urgency when it comes to setting the sectoral targets? The longer it takes to set those targets, the more onerous it will be for us to meet them. Is his Government too afraid to deal with the issue of agriculture? Are discussions with the agriculture sector and...

Gino Kenny: The Business Postreported that there was a lack of oversight in regard to procurement of personal protective equipment, PPE, in 2020. The figure referenced in the article was €770 million. In the HSE response to a parliamentary question I tabled last year, the figure was €1 billion spent on PPE.
