Climate Change Response Bill 2010: Second Stage

 

Section 7 provides for the establishment of a national climate change expert advisory body, which will comprise a chairperson and between five and seven ordinary members, three of whom will be, ex-officio, the director general of the Environmental Protection Agency, the chief executive of the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland and the director of Teagasc. I appreciate the Bill does not include the director of Teagasc but I agree with the Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food that the director should be included and I will bring forward an amendment to this effect.
