Climate Action and Low Carbon Development (Amendment) Bill 2021: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2021-07-02
============================================================

Eamon Ryan (GP), Dublin Bay South

The term, "nature based solutions" is defined under section 7 of the Bill that sets out to amend the National Oil Reserves Agency, NORA, legislation, with provisions being made so that projects will be open to apply for funding under the climate action fund. The definition is in line with and informed by the definition provided by the European Commission. The Bill was further amended, following an amendment which came from a previous Dáil debate on the climate action fund and how it operates. We have prepared that. I believe that the approach we are taking is appropriate. Therefore, I cannot agree to the amendment.
