Energy Conservation
Seanad Éireann — 2024-02-20
============================================================

Josepha Madigan (FG), Dublin Rathdown

I acknowledge the Senator's comment on the reduction of time from 26 months to 20 months. It is progress and I think there will be more progress as time goes on. I note he welcomed some of the measures that have been put in place, including around staffing, which hopefully will help. It is important to note there are other schemes as well. Some 700 approved housing body and low-income homes were upgraded under the national home energy upgrade scheme and the community energy grant scheme. I appreciate the points the Senator raised and I will bring them to the attention of the Minister for the environment.
