Environment (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2025: Report and Final Stages
Dail Éireann — 2026-01-14
============================================================

Pa Daly (SF), Kerry

I move amendment No. 9:
In page 19, between lines 15 and 16, to insert the following:
“(4) The Minister may by regulations prescribe periods under subsection (2), having consulted the Agency, and may prescribe different periods for different classes of activity.
(5) The Agency shall include in its annual report under section 51(3) the number of cases in which the period under this section was exceeded, the reasons, and corrective actions taken.”.”.
Mar gheall ar na leasuithe sin, ar leathanach 19, idir líne 15 agus 16, molaim go gcuirfí isteach “The Minister may by regulations prescribe periods under subsection (2), having consulted the Agency, and may prescribe different periods for different classes of activity.” and that “The Agency shall include in its annual report under section 51(3)”. These amendments are designed to amend the EPA Act and Waste Management Act by mandating that the EPA should include details of missed deadlines in its annual report.
