Environmental Policy
Dail Éireann — 2021-11-11
============================================================

Steven Matthews (GP), Wicklow

In the week of COP26, when the nations of the world have come together to address the climate emergency, we should not forget the other emergency, the biodiversity emergency. I would like to ask the Minister about the role of biodiversity officers in local authorities and his view on having a biodiversity officer for every local authority across the country.
