Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action
Review of Climate Action Plan 2023: Minister for Public Expenditure, NDP Delivery and Reform

I am looking first for the Minister to accept that we do not have the level of data to assess whether grants are just transferring public money to private homeowners and are not reducing energy poverty. We should be trying to reduce both our emissions and our energy poverty levels. That report called for a second impact assessment to be undertaken. Is the Department of public expenditure and reform doing that or will the Minister give a commitment that it will be done and that the data will be collected in order for us to actually assess?
