I propose to take Questions Nos. 162 and 163 together.

The Annex of Actions for Climate Action Plan 2023 contains additional and supplementary detail regarding the actions identified in the Plan to support the delivery of Ireland's climate goals and emissions reduction targets. This includes steps to support delivery, timelines, outputs, action leads, and other stakeholders.

The Annex will facilitate the implementation of the 2023 Climate Action Plan by supporting the reporting and monitoring processes that will track the Government's progress in delivering the actions set out in the Plan.

Following an extensive cross-Government engagement process, it is expected that the Annex will go to Government for approval shortly, and will be published as soon as possible thereafter.
