Mary Lou McDonald (SF), Dublin Central

The Minister made reference to delivery in respect of the Taoiseach's contribution to COP27. We have to accept that we face a huge challenge to achieve a just transition and our 2030 carbon emissions targets are in real jeopardy. The story of Ireland so far has been one of targets set and targets missed. We now need urgency, common sense and action. We need action in respect of investment in our ports and planning system if we are to achieve the wind capacity the Minister talked about. Our retrofitting scheme is not fit for purpose and needs to be addressed urgently. As a matter of urgency, I ask that we have statements and a debate in the House on COP27 and all of the issues of delivery that need to be addressed in that regard.
