Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Bill 2015: Second Stage
10:30 am

Friends of the Earth says that despite the weakness of the Bill on the targets, it will make climate policy-making more transparent and more evidence-based. In addition, thanks to the advisory council, it establishes a strong pattern of parliamentary accountability with four Ministers required to make annual statements to the Dáil. I would like to see annual statements to the Seanad as well and that it would be adopted by the Dáil and Seanad by way of resolution. I ask that that be done.
