Future Ireland Fund and Infrastructure, Climate and Nature Fund Bill 2024: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-05-29
============================================================

Alice-Mary Higgins (IND), National University of Ireland

I move amendment No 18:
In page 16, between lines 24 and 25, to insert the following:
“(3) In this section, “just transition” means bringing together workers and their trade unions, communities, employers and public representatives in social dialogue to develop, agree and drive the plans, policies and investments needed for a fast and fair transition to a low carbon economy and includes; the creation of sustainable employment and replacement jobs of equal quality based on the principles of decent work, the establishment of appropriate social supports and training, reskilling and enterprise programmes for workers and communities affected by the transition. The just transition process in Ireland may reflect and draw on the International Labour Organisation Guidelines on Just Transition.”.
