Climate Change Policy
Dail Éireann — 2023-05-11
============================================================

Richard Bruton (FG), Dublin Bay North

Ireland has not been good at either constructing buildings or enterprises that put sustainability at their core. We have 50% higher emissions and a low uptake of renewables outside of electricity, poor material and waste management systems and the lowest rate of circularity, bar Romania, in Europe. Does the Minister agree he has a central role in addressing this?
