Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Update on the Public Sector Climate Action Mandate: Discussion

11:00 am

Ms Anne Stewart:

We provide the OGP criteria search tool to public sector bodies. When they are buying products, they use this tool as a method to determine the green specification they can add to their tender, which encompasses things such as embodied carbon. We are not responsible for the procurement and or involved in any of the tender processes within the public sector bodies directly, but we do it within our central procurement purchasing function for our frameworks. We certainly have inclusion there.

I might let Mr. Bogie speak a little to some of our frameworks where we have done exactly what the Chairman is asking about.
