Darren O'Rourke: I thank the Minister for his opening statement. I want to ask about the policy relating to data centres. I have listened to the exchanges so far. I presume that the Government has a plan for the sustainable development of data centres. I have a couple of questions on this. What is the policy on direct gas supplies for data centres? In view of the time constraints, perhaps the Minister...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Review of Climate Action Plan 2024: Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (24 Oct 2024)

Darren O'Rourke: I know we are tight for time but I want to touch on the issue of concrete and I have listened to the Minister's comments on it so far. I hear a lot from the sector that there are new obligations and new levies but that the developed infrastructure is not there to support them to recycle or reuse construction materials. Does the Minister recognise this as a problem and a challenge and what...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Review of Climate Action Plan 2024: Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment (24 Oct 2024)

Paul Murphy: Has the Minister been lobbied by the data centre industry either individually as data centres or the varying lobbying organisations? If so, what have been they been pushing for and what has been his response? What measures are being taken to ensure the policy on data centres does not place significant stress on Ireland's water supply, as well as the stress on our electricity supply? We...

Vote 45 - Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science (Supplementary)
(24 Oct 2024)

Jim O'Callaghan: I thank the Minister of State. I do not think there will be too many questions. One thing that Deputy Pádraig O'Sullivan and I were pleased to see was that €116 million was going to be set for once-off cost-of-living measures for students. We had the Union of Students in Ireland before the committee earlier in the week. Cost-of-living challenges are a big issue for third level...

Select Committee on Education and Skills: Estimates for Public Services 2024
Vote 45 - Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science (Supplementary)
(24 Oct 2024)

Niall Collins: Yes, absolutely. The €116 million in the main goes towards the €1,000 reduction in the student registration charge. I think it is fair to say we have to keep in context the fact that over the lifetime of this Government, we have done a lot of work to reform the SUSI grant system. We have increased thresholds and grant amounts. We also made technical adjustments to the scheme...
