Section 15(1) of the Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Acts 2015 to 2021 includes provisions regarding the duties of relevant bodies. The Code of Practice for the Governance of State Bodies states that every State body should have due regard to its legal responsibilities and the objectives set by Government. Communications between my Department and such bodies often occur in contexts related to their obligations. For example, numerous relevant bodies have participated in the preparation of the upcoming Climate Action Plan 2023.
