I am informed the issue of the regulation of fossil fuels advertising does not fall under the remit of the Department of Enterprise, Trade & Employment. More broadly, the Department is helping businesses move away from fossil fuels and towards more sustainable, cheaper alternatives though schemes such as the €55 million ‘Green Transition’ fund.
