Climate Action Plan
Dail Éireann — 2024-06-27
============================================================

Gary Gannon (SD), Dublin Central

The Environmental Protection Agency, EPA, has analysed the Government's climate action plan and found that if every measure were fully implemented, we would only reduce our emissions by 29%, rather than our legally binding target of 51%. This is the second year in a row the EPA has come to this conclusion, so nothing the Government has announced in the past 12 months has led to a verifiable increase in emissions reductions. How does the Minister plan to change this record in his last few months in office?
