Richard Bruton (FG), Dublin Bay North

I agree simplification is a help, but we need people to act in concert. We have seen the success of group schemes in all sorts of different walks of life, such as group water schemes, sustainable energy communities and so on. We need to have a similar momentum within the enterprise sector. That is not happening at the moment.
There are huge opportunities in the food sector for eliminating waste and improving packaging. There are huge areas in the construction sector for managing materials better and thinking differently about design. We need to embed that across the sector rather than hope they will come and pick up grants.
