Energy Production

============================================================

Richard Bruton (FG), Dublin Bay North

I congratulate Deputy Murphy on his good luck on getting three questions in a row. I calculate the probability of that is one in 1,300. Paul is extremely lucky, unlike me, whose questions are relegated to the bottom of the paper. However, I am very fortunate that Deputy Alan Farrell has allowed me to ask this question.
Will the Minister outline his views on the expansion of wind energy and the progress made to date? What are the potential obstacles? The climate council does not seem to have listed having energy security as one of the obstacles to such progress, despite what Deputy Murphy just said.
