The report of the Environmental Protection Agency Review Group was recently presented to me and was published on 30 May 2011. It contains 58 recommendations across a number of themes, such as governance and resources, licensing, assessment and monitoring, research and information and stakeholder relationships. My Department will now consider the findings and recommendations, and I have asked the EPA to let me have its views also in these regards by July. The report is available on www.environ.ie.
