I move amendment No. 58:
In page 8, to delete lines 22 to 24 and substitute the following: “(2) When making a directive under this section, the Minister shall have regard to—(a) the Sustainable Development Goals,
(b) the climate change and biodiversity crisis,
(c) Ireland’s targets in respect of emissions reduction,
(d) biodiversity,
(e) EU directives on birds, habitats and water,
(f) Just Transition, and
(g) such other priorities as might be set out in a national forestry programme subsequent to the expiry of the current Forestry Programme 2014 – 2020.”.
